Import Tips
• Obtain independent lab certification confirming cladding meets Chapter 71 definitions (affixed by mechanical means, not mere plating)
• Declare exact gold content percentage; undervaluation of cladding often triggers audits and penalties
• Check for anti-dumping duties on gold-clad imports from specific countries like China
