Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This by-law lets businesses import blue/orthochromatic photographic film used for technical/industrial purposes (oscillography, seismic recording, well logging, CRT recording, photoclinometers) at concessional customs rates — but only if they lodge a security (bond/guarantee) with Customs. It matters because it avoids standard duty while ensuring the film is used solely for those technical uses; the concession applies only while the security remains in place and covers specified tariff codes (3702.32.90, 3702.39.90, 3702.44.90, 3702.93.00).
