Overview
This HTS subcategory, "Other," within the broader heading of "Other sacks and bags, including cones," encompasses packing containers made of paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding, or webs of cellulose fibers that do not fit into more specific classifications. These are typically used for packaging and distribution purposes across various industries. The key characteristic is their function as a container, designed to hold and transport goods.
To differentiate this category from its sibling, "Shipping sacks and multiwall bags, other than grocers' bags" (4819.40.00.20), this "Other" classification is for sacks and bags that do not meet the specific structural or material requirements of multiwall construction or are not primarily intended for heavy-duty shipping or bulk grocery packaging. It is a residual category for items that are still sacks or bags but lack the distinct features of the more narrowly defined types.
As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this "Other" designation relies on a process of elimination, ensuring the product is indeed a sack or bag, made from the specified paper-based materials, and does not qualify for more specific classifications within the broader heading. Examples might include smaller, specialized paper bags or sacks for unique retail or product packaging applications that are not explicitly listed elsewhere.
