Last updated: August 2026 dataClassified as 'not elsewhere specified,' this heading captures coated, surface-colored, or surface-decorated kraft paper and paperboard that does not meet the strict fiber-purity thresholds (over 95% chemical wood fiber) required for the bleached-grade headings. Mixed-fiber kraft substrates with decorative or functional surface treatments — used in specialty wrapping, industrial liners, and retail packaging — commonly fall here. The NES designation means classification is reached by exclusion, so importers must confirm that the product fails the fiber-content test for the more specific headings before applying this code.

The NES heading applies when the kraft paper or paperboard does not satisfy the over-95% chemical-process wood fiber requirement, or when it is bleached but falls outside the specific grammage brackets of the more precise headings. It is a residual category reached only after ruling out the more specific classifications.
Yes — the heading explicitly includes surface-colored and surface-decorated variants alongside conventionally coated boards, so decorative printing or pigment application does not create a separate classification as long as the product otherwise meets the NES kraft criteria.
