Overview
This HTS category, 4819.30.00.40, encompasses "Other" sacks and bags that have a base with a width of 40 cm or more. This classification is designed to capture specific types of paper or paperboard sacks and bags that fall within the broader group of packing containers but are not otherwise specifically enumerated. These items are typically constructed from paper or paperboard and serve as packaging for various goods.
This particular subheading distinguishes itself from its sibling, 4819.30.00.20, which specifically covers "Shipping sacks and multiwall bags, other than grocers' bags." While both deal with sacks and bags of a significant width, 4819.30.00.40 acts as a residual category for those that do not meet the specific criteria of shipping sacks or multiwall bags. The primary differentiating factor often lies in the construction, intended use, and material composition beyond the basic requirement of a wide base.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the classification hinges on correctly identifying whether a paper or paperboard sack or bag with a base width of 40 cm or more fits within the definition of this "Other" category, meaning it is not a shipping sack or multiwall bag as defined by the preceding subheading.
