Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material: The classification above assumes the artwork is primarily paint, pastel, or similar medium on a backing. If the artwork incorporates significant amounts of wood, metal, or other materials, it could fall under a different classification.
- Handmade vs. Machine-Made: The 9701 codes specifically refer to items "executed entirely by hand." If the artwork is produced using mechanical processes (e.g., printing, laser cutting), it may not be eligible for these codes.
- Age Verification: If claiming the 9701.29.00.00 code (over 100 years old), you must provide documentation (e.g., appraisal, historical records) to support the age claim.
- Wood Component: If the artwork is a wood carving or has a substantial wood component, consider HS code 8465.99.02.30 (Woodworking machines: Other).
- Declaration Accuracy: It is crucial to accurately declare the material composition and production method to avoid potential issues with customs.
Next Steps:
- Confirm Material Composition: Precisely identify all materials used in the artwork.
- Verify Production Method: Determine if the artwork is entirely handmade or involves mechanical processes.
- Age Assessment: If the artwork is potentially over 100 years old, obtain documentation to support this claim.
- Consult with a Customs Broker: For complex cases or if you are unsure about the correct classification, it is recommended to consult with a licensed customs broker.
