Overview

HTS Code 4820.90.00.00 encompasses stationery and related paper articles that do not fit into the more specific subheadings within heading 4820. This category serves as a residual for items such as blotting pads, book covers (including cover boards and book jackets), and other similar paper or paperboard articles that are not explicitly classified elsewhere within this heading. The primary classification criterion is that the item must be made of paper or paperboard and serve a stationery or organizational purpose.

This residual category is distinct from its sibling categories by its exclusion of the specifically enumerated items. For instance, it does not include registers, account books, notebooks, or diaries (4820.10), exercise books (4820.20), binders, folders, or file covers (4820.30), manifold business forms or interleaved carbon sets (4820.40), or albums for samples or collections (4820.50). Therefore, any paper or paperboard article intended for stationery use that does not meet the defining characteristics of these more specific categories would fall under this "Other" designation.

As this is a leaf node, there are no subcategories to introduce. Classification under 4820.90.00.00 requires careful consideration of the specific nature and function of the article in question, ensuring it is indeed an article of paper or paperboard related to stationery and not otherwise specified in the heading. Examples might include certain types of paper coasters with a stationery function or custom-designed paper organizational aids that don't align with the definitions of binders or folders.
