Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify the camera uses standard 35mm roll film and is truly disposable (not reloadable) to confirm classification under 9006.53.0220

• Include detailed specs on film width, exposure count, and flash type in commercial invoices to prevent misclassification as digital cameras

• Check for CPSC compliance labeling if marketed for consumer use; improper disposal instructions can lead to customs holds
