Last updated: April 2026 dataColor negative and other non-slide photographic film in the 16–35 mm width range and up to 30 m per roll covers the workhorse formats of consumer and professional still photography, including standard 35 mm negative film. The US schedule provides three lines: a general provision (3702540000), a 35 mm-specific line (3702540030), and an NESOI line for other widths (3702540060). The United Kingdom and Germany are the primary US suppliers, with China, Canada, and Australia also contributing.

The critical distinction is the intended photographic process: 370253 covers film designed for color slides (reversal processing), while 370254 covers color film for all other purposes in the same dimensional range — primarily color negative film for prints. Importers must confirm whether the emulsion is a reversal (slide) type or a negative/print type to select the correct heading.
Film in rolls exceeding 30 m in length in this width range falls under a different subheading (370255), which covers color film over 16 mm and not over 35 mm wide in rolls over 30 m. Bulk-loaded film sold in cassettes or short rolls typically stays within the 30 m threshold, but importers of long-roll or bulk-pack products should measure roll length carefully to avoid misclassification.
