Analysis

HTS 4811.60.60 covers paper and paperboard, coated, impregnated or covered with wax, paraffin, stearin, oil or glycerol: other under heading 4811 (paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibers, coated, impregnated…).

Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 35% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 35% duty.

There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 100% of the 225 tariff lines in chapter 48 that are also free. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.

Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 322220 (Paper Bag and Coated and Treated Paper Manufacturing), an industry of 715 US establishments employing 55,911 people, the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.

All 22 neighbouring lines carry the same duty-free rate, so a borderline choice between them changes the statistics reported, not the duty paid.

Every edition we compared, from Jan 2023 to Oct 2026 (Rev. 22), shows the same general rate of Free.
