Import Tips
• Label products clearly as 'gold clad' not 'gold plated' to match HTS definition; mislabeling risks penalties
• Include photos and cross-sections in import docs to prove cladding integrity over plating
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain gold-clad imports from specific countries; check Commerce updates
