Import Tips
• Confirm the gold flash is a coating and not an alloying element, as this affects the base metal classification
• The brass core must meet the brass definition (zinc predominates, nickel <5%, tin <3%) for this tariff item
• Keep documentation of the gold plating thickness to distinguish this from gold-plated articles of Chapter 71
