Customs code · HS subheading 4823 90
Final code reached
Writing, printing or other graphic-use paper and paperboard in small formats or other shapes
This is a complete 8-digit customs code. Exports and Intrastat use it as it is. For an import into the EU the declaration uses 4823 90 40 00: this code with 00 added.
This code covers paper and paperboard intended for writing, printing or other graphic use, when supplied in strips or rolls with a width <= 36 cm, in sheets where neither side is > 36 cm when unfolded, or cut into a non-square or non-rectangular shape. It applies where the product is not described by a more specific neighbouring class such as filter paper, diagram paper, cups, trays or moulded paper-pulp goods.
For example
- Writing paper in rectangular sheets where neither side is > 36 cm when unfolded
- Printing paper in rolls with a width <= 36 cm
- Paper for other graphic use cut into a non-square, non-rectangular shape

Before you use the code
Check the facts that sit outside the code
The code can be right while what you pay still changes, because of where the goods come from, when they arrive, or extra EU measures.
- The product and its form Check that your product really matches this description, including what it is made of and the form it arrives in.
- Country of origin Trade agreements, sanctions and extra measures can change the treatment of the very same code.
- Current tariff measures Check today's rate, any restrictions or licences, and the quantity customs asks for, with Toldstyrelsen or TARIC.
On an import declaration
4823 90 40 00
When these goods are imported into the EU, the declaration uses the 10-digit form 4823904000: this code with 00 added. There is no further split under it.
Exports from the EU and Intrastat normally use the 8-digit code as it is.

This is the catch-all under 4823 90: it covers what the sibling codes below do not.
This is the part of the parent group for writing-, printing- or other graphic-use paper and paperboard in the stated small formats or other shapes that is not named by a more specific neighbouring code.
Rates, origin and documents
Read the signals first. Open only the ones you want to check.
Besides the ordinary duty, the EU records these kinds of measure against this code. They are listed as signals only: whether one applies to your goods can depend on where they come from, who produced them, the exact product and the documents you present. No amounts are worked out here.
Data of Sept. 1, 2026
Lower duty for goods from some countries
Possible
Preferential rates exist for goods originating in:

Check this code in the official EU TARIC database
Restrictions and paperwork
Important
Import restrictions are recorded for goods originating in:
- Ukraine
- Indonesia
- Belarus
- Russian Federation
The EU records document conditions on this code. What customs may ask for depends on where the goods come from, exactly what the product is and the customs procedure.
Proof of origin 2 conditions
If you claim a lower rate for goods from a country the EU has a trade agreement with, customs asks for proof of origin, for example a EUR.1 certificate or an origin declaration.
Show the EU's own wording for these conditions
- Movement certificate EUR.1
- Invoice declaration or origin declaration made out by any exporter on invoice or any other commercial document
Sanctions and restricted regions 10 conditions
Some conditions come from EU sanctions rules. They matter when the goods are linked to a country or region the EU restricts trade with.
