4902.90.20 - Other

This HTS category, 4902.90.20, encompasses "Other" newspapers, journals, and periodicals that do not fall under more specific headings. This includes publications that are not classified as newspaper supplements printed by a gravure process (4902.90.10.00). The primary characteristic for inclusion here is that the item is a printed publication intended for regular or irregular dissemination, fitting the general definition of a newspaper, journal, or periodical.

To differentiate, the sibling category 4902.90.10.00 is exclusively for newspaper supplements produced using the gravure printing method. All other types of supplements or standalone publications that meet the criteria of newspapers, journals, or periodicals, but are not gravure-printed supplements, will be found within the broader 4902.90.20 classification. This node acts as a catch-all for printed serial publications not otherwise specified.

This category is further subdivided to refine the classification based on frequency of publication and the specific nature of the journal or periodical. The subcategories include "Newspapers appearing less than four times per week" (4902.90.20.20), acknowledging that not all newspapers meet the definition of daily publications. Additionally, "Other business and professional journals and periodicals" (4902.90.20.40) are distinguished, highlighting the specialized content and intended audience of these publications. Finally, a general "Other" subcategory (4902.90.20.60) exists for remaining journals and periodicals not fitting the prior subdivisions, with a note clarifying that single issues bundled for shipping are also included here.
