Exposed Thermosensitive Medical Imaging Film from Japan

Thermosensitive films exposed to laser or heat in medical printers for latent diagnostic images, undeveloped. Per chapter note 2, 'photographic' includes thermosensitive surfaces, so these films fall under tariff item 3704.00.90 as exposed but not developed photographic film.

Duty Rate — Japan → Canada

6.5%

Import Tips

• Ensure the film is exposed via heat or laser and undeveloped, with latent images

• Provide documentation of the medical imaging application to CBSA

• Verify that the film is not waste or scrap, as chapter note 1 excludes such items
