Import Tips
• Verify the coin's precious metal content via assay certificate to confirm classification under Chapter 71 and avoid reclassification as bullion
• Ensure documentation proves the coin is not legal tender (e.g
• marked 'copy' or 'replica') to prevent Customs holding as currency
• Declare exact weight and purity; common pitfall is undervaluation leading to penalties under precious metals import rules
