Import Tips

• Declare exact karat purity and weight of gold content accurately on commercial invoice to avoid reclassification or penalties

• Provide certificates of authenticity or assay reports from recognized labs to verify precious metal composition during customs examination

• Avoid common pitfalls like undervaluation; use transaction value based on actual gold spot price plus fabrication costs
