Kodak Peel-Apart Instant Film from Japan
Professional-grade peel-apart instant film sheets for large-format cameras like Polaroid 20x24, requiring manual separation of negative and positive after development. It qualifies for HTS 3701.20.00.60 as 'other' instant print film in flat, unexposed, sensitized state on non-paper substrate. The process relies on light-sensitive emulsions forming visible images via diffusion transfer.

• Comply with international shipping regs for pod chemicals, including UN numbers for dangerous goods classification
• Test samples for customs if large-format, as oversized sheets may face volumetric duty calculations
