Import Tips

Verify precious metal content (e.g

14K gold hallmark) with assay certificates to confirm classification under heading 9101

Ensure movement documentation specifies quartz operation, mechanical display, and zero or one jewel to avoid reclassification

Be aware of quota restrictions for insular possession products; obtain necessary certificates for duty-free entry if applicable
