Last updated: April 2026 dataColor (polychrome) photographic plates and flat film on non-paper, non-textile substrates — sensitized but unexposed — serve professional photography, proofing, and specialty imaging markets. Japan leads US import supply under this heading, with Austria also a notable source. The US schedule carries two active 10-digit lines: a general color flat film line (3701910000) and a residual 'other' color polychrome film line (3701910060); importers should confirm with manufacturers which line applies based on product specification and intended use.

Heading 370191 covers conventional sensitized flat film requiring separate development processing, while heading 370120 covers instant print film with integral self-developing chemistry. The presence or absence of built-in development reagents is the key technical and classification distinction.
Correct — heading 370191 is limited to color (polychrome) flat film. Black-and-white or monochrome sensitized flat film on non-paper substrates would fall under heading 370199 (NESOI), specifically into lines covering dry plates or other unexposed flat film not for color photography.
