Last updated: August 2026 dataCigarette paper not elsewhere specified — including rolls exceeding 5 cm in width — occupies a distinct niche in the tobacco-products supply chain, serving both commercial cigarette manufacturers and roll-your-own markets. Classification hinges on whether the paper is cut to size or supplied in bulk rolls, as this affects both the applicable tariff line and downstream excise-tax treatment. Importers should confirm that the paper's porosity, basis weight, and burn characteristics meet the buyer's specification, since these technical parameters often drive sourcing decisions as much as price.

SITC 64155 covers both formats — cut-to-size booklets and rolls wider than 5 cm — but the corresponding HTS tariff lines may differ based on form and width. Importers should verify the exact dimensions and presentation with a licensed customs broker to ensure correct classification and avoid reclassification at the port of entry.
Porosity (air permeability), basis weight (grams per square meter), burn rate, and opacity are the primary technical parameters. Cigarette manufacturers often qualify suppliers against proprietary burn and taste profiles, making specification compliance as critical as price in supplier selection.
