How to read this code

4811.51 is the six-digit HS subheading for paper and paperboard. 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.
