37 — Photographic or cinematographic goods
Photographic or cinematographic goods
Names come in English where the EU Combined Nomenclature publishes them — chapters, headings and subheadings, whose first six digits are the same Harmonized System; deeper EAEU detail is a machine translation, marked as such. Official texts — tariff notes, measures, lists and classification rulings — are the original: customs and your broker go by that wording. Where we show a machine translation of them, it is marked; where our quality check rejected one, the Russian stays.
Notes to chapter 37 — Photographic or cinematographic goods 4 items
Notes
English text as published in Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2021/1832 (Combined Nomenclature). The EAEU tariff and the EU nomenclature copy these notes from the same convention. For a Russian declaration the binding version is the Russian one: Annex to Decision No 80 of the EEC Council of 14 September 2021.
1. This chapter does not cover waste or scrap.
2. In this chapter, the word ‘photographic’ relates to the process by which visible images are formed, directly or indirectly, by the action of light or other forms of radiation on photosensitive, including thermosensitive, surfaces.
Additional notes
Machine translation. The original is the Russian text of the EAEU tariff, and customs goes by it; this translation is for understanding only and has no legal force.
1. In the case of sound films imported in two tapes (one tape contains only an image, the second tape contains sound), each tape shall be included in the appropriate heading.
2. The term "chronicle films" (subheading 3706 90 520 0) means films less than 330 m long and reflecting current political, sports, military, scientific, literary, folklore, tourist, social and other events.
