Last updated: April 2026 dataClassified as nonmonetary to distinguish it from central-bank reserve assets, gold in powder form serves precision industrial applications including electronics brazing pastes, thermal interface materials, and specialty chemical catalysts. Germany and Switzerland are the leading US suppliers, reflecting their deep refining and specialty-metals processing industries. The single tariff line 7108110000 covers all nonmonetary gold powder regardless of purity, so purity documentation is essential for downstream users who require specific particle-size and fineness specifications. Importers should note that gold powder is valued on gold content, and accurate weight and fineness declarations are required at entry.

Monetary gold is held or transferred between central banks or international monetary institutions as a reserve asset and is generally exempt from normal customs procedures. Nonmonetary gold powder, classified under 7108110000, is traded commercially for industrial or investment purposes and is subject to standard entry requirements including accurate declaration of gold content and weight.
Importers must declare the net weight and gold content (fineness) on the entry. Because gold is a high-value commodity, CBP may require additional documentation such as a refinery assay certificate. Working with a licensed customs broker experienced in precious metals is strongly recommended to ensure compliance with valuation and reporting requirements.
