Import Tips
• Confirm the rhodium cladding is affixed mechanically, not just plated, to meet the definition of 'metal clad with precious metal' in Chapter 71 Note 7
• Include the trophy base's weight and value in your customs declaration, as this affects duty calculation
• If the base is part of a complete trophy set, check if other components change the tariff classification
