Verify the precious metal plating thickness and composition via XRF testing to confirm classification under 8215.91.30.00 and avoid reclassification as unplated

Include lab certification and plating process documentation in shipments to facilitate customs clearance

Beware of common pitfalls like insufficient plating leading to classification in lower-duty unplated forks (8215.99)
