How to read this code
4803.00 is the six-digit HS subheading for tissue, towel, napkin stock or similar. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many pulp, paper & paperboard lines — check our import guides for your market.
