Sensitised unexposed photographic roll film, 105–610 mm wide

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 3702 44 90 (other sensitised, unexposed photographic roll film of a width exceeding 105 mm but not exceeding 610 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 photographic or cinematographic goods within Chapter 37 — including instant print film or film for specific professional or medical imaging applications — may be classified under distinct tariff lines that carry their own compliance.

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

The principal importer risk at this tariff line is misclassification: film of a width outside the 105–610 mm band, or film meeting the definition of instant print film, falls under separately enumerated subheadings within Chapter 37 and may attract different treatment on customs examination. Re-classification on examination triggers detention pending regularisation and potential retrospective duty recovery. Verify the precise film width, base material, and functional description against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance at this line.
