Last updated: April 2026 dataThe residual cigarette paper heading captures formats not covered by booklets, tubes, or narrow rolls — including pre-cut sheets and wide rolls used in specialty or artisanal tobacco applications. Finland and France are the top US suppliers, with Brazil also a significant source, illustrating a supply base that spans Nordic specialty mills and South American producers. All imports enter under 4813900000; classifying a product here rather than under 481310 or 481320 hinges on its physical form at importation, making accurate format documentation essential.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
This residual subheading captures cigarette paper that does not meet the specific form criteria of the other subheadings — for example, wide rolls exceeding 5 cm, individual pre-cut sheets sold in bulk, or other formats not presented as booklets or tubes. The key is that the product must still be identifiable as cigarette paper by composition and intended use.
The critical measurement is the roll width at time of importation. Importers should include a technical specification sheet or mill certificate confirming the roll width. Rolls at or below 5 cm belong in 481320; those exceeding that dimension should be classified under 481390. Consulting a licensed customs broker is advisable when width is close to the threshold.
