Questions

HS code 480210: common questions

What is HS code 480210?

HS code 480210 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Uncoated paper and paperboard, of a kind used for writing, printing or other graphic purposes, and nonperforated punchcards and punchtape paper, in rolls or rectangular (including square) sheets, of any size, other than paper of heading 4801 or 4803; handmade paper and paperboard : Handmade paper and paperboard". The first two digits (48) are the chapter — Paper and paperboard; articles of paper pulp — and digits 3-4 (4802) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

What products fall under HS 480210?

Common products classified under 480210 include handmade paper, craft paper, art paper, deckle edge paper and similar items matching handmade paper and paperboard. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.

How do I find the import duty for HS code 480210?

Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.

Is HS code 480210 the same in every country?

The first 6 digits (480210) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.

Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?

Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
