Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide exact width measurements (e.g

• 61mm for 120 format) in import declarations to justify the >35mm subheading

• Ensure labeling indicates unexposed status and include MSDS for light-sensitive chemical handling

• Avoid bulk packaging that could imply industrial waste; import as consumer/retail rolls
