Import Tips

Confirm the case plating is genuine gold or silver (not solid metal) via XRF testing to meet HTS 9102.11.70 criteria and avoid shifting to 9101 for precious metal cases

Provide detailed plating specifications and material invoices; ensure no natural pearls or precious stones on case to prevent heading 9101 classification

Check for insular possession duty exemptions if applicable, but verify foreign component values exceed 50% threshold for standard duties
