Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

4804.11.00Same rate: 35%

If Mullen bursting strength meets kraftliner table minima

Qualifies as kraftliner for corrugating medium if strength thresholds like 393 kPa at 115 g/m² (interpolated) are met.

4804.21.00Same rate: 35%

If weight 60-115 g/m² with sack kraft tear/tensile specs

Lighter grammage with specific burst index >3.7 kPa·m²/g and stretch moves it to sack kraft paper subheading.

4805.24Lower: 10% vs 35%

If mainly from recovered waste paper pulp

Testliner from recycled fibers with Mullen burst index ≥2 kPa·m²/g falls under fluting paper made from waste.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify fiber content exceeds 80% sulfate process fibers via lab testing to confirm kraft classification and avoid reclassification

Provide mill test certificates showing grammage 150-225 g/m² and burst strength to clear customs without delays

Ensure rolls are over 36 cm wide; narrower widths may shift to heading 4802
