Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 481320 when importing or exporting cigarette paper in rolls that are not wider than 5 cm. This code specifically covers products like rolls of cigarette paper that may be used in the manufacturing of cigarettes or for personal use.
This HS-6 line is distinct from HS-6 481310, which pertains to cigarette paper that is cut to size or packaged in booklets. If your product is in roll form and meets the width requirement, 481320 is the correct classification.
Cigarette paper in this category is typically made from wood pulp and is designed for rolling cigarettes. It may come with various properties, such as being flavored or unflavored, but the key factor is its form and width.
If you are dealing with cigarette paper that exceeds 5 cm in width, you will need to look at other classifications, as they fall outside this specific HS-6 line. Always ensure that your product specifications align with the HS code you choose.
