Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material: The composition of the statue is crucial. Is it made of bronze, iron, steel, resin, or another material? This will significantly impact the correct HS code.
- Age: If the statue is over 100 years old, codes under 9703 are applicable. Documentation is essential.
- Artistic Value: Is the statue considered an original work of art? If so, 9703 is more appropriate. If it's a mass-produced ornament, 8306 or 7326 might be better.
- Base Metal: If the statue is made of base metal, confirm the specific metal type for accurate classification.
- Certification: Depending on the declared value and material, you may need to provide a certificate of origin or other documentation to support the classification.
- 2025 Tariff Changes: Be aware of the upcoming tariff increases on April 2, 2025, and factor them into your cost calculations.
To help narrow down the correct HS code, please provide the following information:
- Material composition of the statue.
- Approximate age of the statue.
- Is it an original work of art or a reproduction?
- The declared value of the statue.
