Import Tips
• White gold requires rhodium plating documentation; untreated white gold may classify differently based on alloy composition
• Maintain complete movement assembly records; partial assemblies risk classification as parts under 9114
• Luxury brand authentication certificates aid in valuation disputes during formal entry
