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
