Gold (including gold plated with platinum) unwrought or in semi-manufactured forms, or in powder form
In plain English
This heading covers gold in unwrought, semi-manufactured, or powder forms, including gold plated with platinum. The goods are divided into categories based on their physical state and intended use. One category is for non-monetary gold powder, while another covers non-monetary gold that is unwrought but not in powder form. A third category addresses semi-manufactured non-monetary gold, and a final category is reserved for monetary gold.
