Import Tips
• Verify that the platinum cladding meets the 2% weight threshold for precious metal alloys if any alloying is involved
• Classify as a finding, not a finished brooch, to avoid higher duty rates
• Prepare a detailed product description for CBSA, including the base metal and cladding method
