Import Tips
• Use XRF or fire assay reports for purity validation; mismatches lead to penalties under precious metals import rules
• Ship in assay-sealed packages to preserve 'not otherwise marked' status through customs inspection
• Comply with FinCEN reporting for values over $10,000; segregate monetary vs nonmonetary declarations
