Questions
HS code 480524: common questions
What is HS code 480524?
HS code 480524 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Other uncoated paper and paperboard, in rolls or sheets, not further worked or processed than as specified in note 3 to this chapter : Testliner (recycled liner board) : Weighing 150 g/m² or less". The first two digits (48) are the chapter — Paper and paperboard; articles of paper pulp — and digits 3-4 (4805) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 480524?
Common products classified under 480524 include testliner, heavy testliner, recycled liner board, recycled cardboard and similar items matching weighing 150 g/m² or less. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 480524?
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 480524 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (480524) 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.
