Import Tips
• Verify purity certificate showing 99.95%+ platinum content to confirm classification as unwrought platinum, excluding alloys
• Provide assay reports and origin documentation; common pitfall is misclassifying sponge or powder as unwrought bar
• Declare exact weight and form; ensure no secondary processing like hammering that shifts to semimanufactured
