Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 482090 when importing or exporting paper stationery items that don’t fit into specific categories. This includes products like notebooks, planners, and other similar articles made of paper or paperboard.
This code is distinct from HS-6 482010, which specifically covers registers and account books. If your product is a diary or a sample album, you would use HS-6 482010 instead of 482090.
The 482090 classification includes a variety of stationery products that are not specifically listed elsewhere in the 4820 heading. This can encompass items such as blank notebooks, sketch pads, and various types of stationery used for writing or drawing.
When considering HS-6 482090, think about the end use of the product. If it’s a simple paper product without specific features like binding or design that would categorize it differently, this is likely the right code.
