U.S. exports of clay-coated paper & paperboard for writing/printing, ≤10% mechanical fiber, in sheets (≤435×297 mm) (HS 481014) totaled $742K in July 2026.
Importers of Clay-Coated Paper & Paperboard for Writing/Printing, ≤10% Mechanical Fiber, in Sheets (≤435×297 mm) paid $49K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 19% on $257K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataCut-sheet clay-coated paper and paperboard for writing, printing, and graphic purposes — with no more than 10% mechanical fiber and sheet dimensions not exceeding 435 mm on one side and 297 mm on the other — is the standard cut-size and near-cut-size commercial printing stock used in digital and offset sheet-fed presses. The dimensional cap (roughly A3 and smaller) is the key classification boundary separating this heading from the roll-form equivalent under 481013. US tariff lines here distinguish basis weight (above or below 150 g/m²), one-sided versus two-sided coating, India/Bible paper grades (4810141300), and photographic base paper, each carrying potentially different duty treatment.

Heading 481014 applies to rectangular sheets where one side does not exceed 435 mm and the other does not exceed 297 mm in the unfolded state. Paper in rolls, or sheets exceeding those dimensions, falls under 481013 (rolls) or other sheet headings. Importers should measure the actual unfolded sheet dimensions — not the ream or pallet dimensions — to confirm the correct heading.
Yes. India and Bible paper that is clay-coated with not more than 10% mechanical fiber and weighing less than 150 g/m² has its own dedicated line (4810141300) within this heading. These ultra-thin, high-opacity papers used in bibles, dictionaries, and reference books are distinguished from general writing and graphic-arts paper, so the specific end-use grade should be documented at entry.
