Embossed Leatherette Book Cover Paper from Japan

Embossed leatherette book cover paper consists of sheets of paperboard embossed with a leather-grain pattern, used for bookbinding and journal covers. The embossing creates a textured surface that mimics leather, and the product falls under tariff item 4808.90.00 as it is embossed paperboard in sheets, not otherwise processed beyond the embossing.

Import Tips

• Ensure the paper is declared as embossed paperboard in sheets, as this determines classification under 4808.90.00

• Provide a sample or technical description to the CBSA if requested to confirm the embossing is not merely subsidiary to another process

• Verify the dimensions of the sheets, as goods over 36 cm on one side and 15 cm on the other qualify for this heading
