Import Tips
• Include origin certificate; placer nuggets from Russia/Colombia common—verify no conflict minerals reporting needed
• For specimens over 100g total value, file EEI via AES; small parcels under $800 may use informal entry
• Label as 'investment grade platinum' not 'jewelry scrap' to avoid undervaluation penalties
