Plastic Covered Paper Handbag from Japan

A lightweight handbag primarily made from paper material wholly or mainly covered with plastic sheeting for water resistance and durability. It falls under HTS 4202.29.10.00 because it is a handbag constructed with paper as the base material covered mainly with plastics, distinguishing it from those made directly of plastics sheeting or other materials. This classification applies to handbags not primarily of leather, textile, or other excluded materials.
