NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 3702 32 90 (other photographic roll film with silver halide emulsion) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code, bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other photographic or cinematographic film types within Chapter 37 — including film for specific widths, colour negative film, or motion-picture film — may attract distinct classification and, in some cases, associated compliance.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.
A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line reflects its residual 'other' character within the silver halide emulsion subheading; a more precisely specified film — by width, by colour or black-and-white designation, or by end use — may fall under a narrower tariff line that carries its own requirements. Re-classification by customs on examination triggers retrospective compliance, including potential detention pending resolution. Confirm the film's technical specification — base material, width, and intended photographic use — against the customs tariff before relying on this absence of compliance.
