Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Verify the film width does not exceed 105mm and confirm absence of perforations to qualify under this subheading; provide lab analysis certificates for silver halide emulsion content

โ€ข Ensure proper storage documentation to prevent accidental exposure during shipping, and label clearly as unexposed sensitized film to avoid misclassification as exposed media
