Classification of platinum decorative items under HS 7114.19
Platinum decorative items, such as vases, statuettes, or office ornaments, are classified under HS code 7114.19. This code falls under the category of \"Goldsmiths' or silversmiths' wares and parts thereof.\" Heading 7114 distinguishes these items from \"Articles of jewelry\" (heading 7113). While jewelry is intended for personal adornment, goldsmiths' wares include articles for household, office, religious, or similar use. Subheading 7114.19 specifically covers these articles when made of precious metals other than silver, which includes platinum and gold. The classification is based on the intended use of the object and its material composition. If an item is designed to decorate a room or serve a functional purpose in a home (like a platinum-trimmed bowl or a solid platinum trophy), it fits here. The General Rules of Interpretation (GRI) 1 and 6 dictate this classification based on the primary material and the nature of the finished good.

Codes often confused with 7114.19
Common mistake. Platinum decorative items are often confused with platinum jewelry under 7113.19. The distinction is that 7113 is for personal adornment (rings, necklaces), while 7114 is for household or office items. Another error is using 8306.21, which covers statuettes of base metal; if the item is made of or plated with platinum, Chapter 71 takes precedence over Chapter 83.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
