Import Tips
• Provide detailed invoice breaking down value per piece and dozen; customs often audits low-value claims
• Ensure chain links meet alloy rules in note 5; alloys with ≥2% silver classify as silver
• Avoid selling as sets with clasps if value pushes over threshold; declare components separately
