Fan-Fold Punchcard Strip Stock from Germany
This product consists of continuous fan-fold strips of bleached, kaolin-coated kraft paperboard, weighing more than 150 g/m² and made predominantly of chemical pulp. The strips are designed to be detached into individual unpunched cards for punchcard machines. Although presented in strips, the product is not 'converted' beyond cutting and folding, and the coating is limited to kaolin, so it falls under tariff item 4810.32.00.

Import Tips
• Verify that the strips are not perforated or punched; if they are, they may be excluded from heading 48.10
• The product must weigh over 150 g/m² and be uniformly bleached with over 95% chemical pulp to qualify
• Confirm the coating is solely kaolin or other inorganic substances, as any plastic coating would change classification
