Import Tips
• Provide exposure logs and development lab reports to substantiate 'other' category excluding newsreel or positive prints
• Ensure no duplication process; original exposed negatives/reversals only to stay in 3706.10.60
• Declare base material (e.g
• acetate safety base) as customs may inspect for nitrate film restrictions under 3702
