Import Tips
• Obtain a certified assay report verifying the precious metal content to confirm classification under precious metal headings
• Declare exact karat purity and weight on commercial invoice; discrepancies can trigger reclassification to base metal cases
• Ensure cases are not assembled with movements, as complete watches classify under 9101 for precious metal cases
