  "summary": "HS code 4906.00 covers plans and drawings for architectural, engineering, industrial, commercial, topographical or similar purposes, being originals drawn by hand; hand-written texts; photographic reproductions on sensitised paper and carbon copies of the foregoing. It sits in heading 49.06 (plans and drawings for architectural, engineering, industrial, commercial, topographical or similar purposes, being originals drawn by hand; hand-written texts; photographic reproductions on sensitised paper and carbon copies of the foregoing) in chapter 49 (printed books, newspapers, pictures and other products of the printing industry; manuscripts, typescripts and plans). It is the only subheading of heading 49.06, so every good of the heading is classified here. National tariff lines under 4906.00 are live on border.bot for the United States (1 line, also used by 1 other country).",
