Overview
This HTS category, 3701.91.00, specifically covers photographic plates and film in the flat, sensitized and unexposed, made from materials other than paper, paperboard, or textiles, and intended for color photography. This includes materials designed to capture images in full color, often referred to as polychrome film or plates. The focus is on the inherent property of color rendition inherent in the sensitization of the material.
This subcategory is distinct from its sibling, 3701.99, which encompasses all other photographic plates and films in the flat, sensitized and unexposed, that are *not* for color photography. Therefore, the key differentiator lies in the intended photographic output: color versus other forms of photography, such as black and white.
Within this classification, further subcategories exist to refine the types of color photographic film. 3701.91.00.30 specifically addresses "Disc film," a particular format of color film. The remaining entries under 3701.91.00.60 cover "Other" color photographic plates and films in the flat, providing a catch-all for various formats not otherwise specified.
