Chapter 71: Natural or cultured pearls; precious stones
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 7113 when importing jewellery articles made from precious metals like gold or silver, or even base metals coated with precious metals. For example, if you're shipping a collection of silver rings with gold plating, this heading applies.
Deciding between HS-6 711311 and HS-6 711319 can be tricky. Use 711311 for items made primarily of silver, including those plated with other precious metals. If your jewellery is made from gold or platinum, opt for 711319, which excludes silver but includes all other precious metals.
If your products are primarily made from base metals but have a precious metal coating, choose HS-6 711320. This line covers items like costume jewellery that has a thin layer of gold or silver, distinguishing it from the solid precious metal options.
