Last updated: April 2026 dataWide-gauge developed motion-picture film — the traditional medium for theatrical feature-film distribution and archival cinema — is subdivided in the US schedule into sound-recorded exhibition film (3706103000), positive release prints for feature films (3706106030), other feature film (3706106060), and a residual category (3706106090). The United Kingdom and France are the leading US suppliers, consistent with their roles as major centers of European film production and post-production. Importers of positive release prints should be aware that copyright and intellectual property documentation is routinely required alongside standard customs entry.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A positive release print is a final exhibition copy struck from a negative for distribution to theaters. 'Other feature film' under 3706106060 captures developed feature-film material that is not a positive release print — such as internegatives, interpositives, or answer prints used in the post-production workflow. The distinction matters because these formats serve different stages of the distribution chain.
No mandatory admissibility review by FSIS, APHIS, or FDA applies to developed motion-picture film. However, CBP may request copyright registration or licensing documentation for feature films, and importers should ensure compliance with any applicable intellectual property or content-related requirements.
