Photographic films (black and white) of a width 620 mm
Black-and-white photographic film rolls, width 620 mm
HSN 3702 43 10 (black-and-white photographic film in rolls of width 620 mm) 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 sensitised photographic materials within Chapter 37 — including colour films, instant-print rolls, or films of different width or length specifications — may be classified under distinct tariff lines that carry their own compliance considerations.
The primary risk for importers at this tariff line is misclassification: width tolerances, film base material, and whether the product is colour or black-and-white each drive the correct 8-digit classification within Chapter 37. A customs re-classification to a tariff line covering colour film or a different dimensional bracket triggers retrospective compliance obligations and risks detention pending re-examination. Confirm the technical specification — base material, exact roll width, roll length, and image type — against the customs tariff entry before relying on the absence of compliance here.
