HS Code 370130

HS code 370130 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Photographic plates and film in the flat, sensitised, unexposed, of any material other than paper, paperboard or textiles; instant print film in the flat, sensitised, unexposed, whether or not in packs : Other plates and film, with any side exceeding 255 mm". The first two digits (37) are the chapter — Photographic or cinematographic goods — and digits 3-4 (3701) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 370130 include sheet film, large format film, 4x5 film, 8x10 film, photographic film sheet, cut film and similar items matching other plates and film. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.

Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.

The first 6 digits (370130) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.

Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
