Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If intended for household use like disposable facial tissues in retail packs
Finished articles like boxed facial tissues for direct consumer use fall under heading 4818 for toilet paper and similar paper products.
If made from sack kraft paper with ≥80% sulfate wood fibers and specific burst/tear specs
Kraft paper meeting subheading 4804.29 sack kraft criteria (60-115 g/m², roll form typically) changes from coated tissue to kraft classification.
If basis weight exceeds 29 g/m² but still ≤30 g/m²
HTS 4811.90.60.10 strictly caps tissue paper at 29 g/m²; slightly heavier tissue shifts to the broader 'other' category in 4811.90.90.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify basis weight certification (≤29 g/m²) via lab testing to meet HTS 4811.90.60.10 specs; exceeding 29 g/m² shifts to other subheadings
• Provide mill test reports confirming tissue paper composition and no printing as primary feature to avoid Chapter 49 reclassification
• Ensure sheets meet size requirements (>36 cm x >15 cm unfolded) and declare as 'in sheets' not rolls to prevent misclassification
