Import Tips
• Ensure charms depict clear religious symbols to qualify as 'purely devotional,' distinguishing from fashion jewelry
• Declare exact base metal alloy to customs, as high precious metal traces could invoke note 5 reclassification
• Comply with children's jewelry lead regulations if sized for kids, common with protective charms
