Gold Jewelry - Goods to Follow

[shaks_great]

Hello Everyone,

I have a concern and would like to get valuable opinion. I did soft landing back in August 2018 where i completed Goods to Follow list in which I declared all the Gold Jewelry which i will carrying now after 2 years when I am moving permanently. When I submitted goods to follow list , i could not submit the photographs of the jewelry as I lost pictures but customs stamped and considered all the items mentioned in the form. Now my question is will it be a problem for me at the airport when i am carrying all the mentioned jewelry but have no stamped photographs but only stamped goods to follow list?

Waiting for the valuable response

I know this "photographs of jewelry" requirement has been posted on this forum numerous times. I'm not sure if there is an official source which states this requirement (there may be one).

But, personally, I found this absurd when I was planning to soft land and move and hence contrary to popular opinion here, I never submitted any photographs when I submitted my GTF list. Also, no one asked me about any photographs when I made the permanent move.

1. When in doubt, check CBSA's web site settler's effects https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/mrc-drc-eng.html

Note the following specifications for certain circumstances

Subsection

Action Required

Jewellery

Describe each item of jewellery you plan to bring into Canada on the list of goods you submit. Since jewellery is difficult to describe accurately, it is best to use the wording from your insurance policy or jeweller's appraisal and to include photographs that have been dated and signed by jeweller or gemologist. This makes it easier to identify the jewellery when you first enter Canada, and later when you return from abroad with the jewellery.

Thank you for the response.

So in this case Jewellery information on GTF list (stamped) is enough carry it into Canada when moving permanently.

PMM has quoted official information and it does mention pictures.

In my personal experience (and at least of 4 friends where I have first hand information) pictures were not asked when making a permanent move.

Not being asked something does not mean it is ok to not provide. Nor does not complying with rule guarantee a problem.

There is lot of leeway on this from either ways. I reckon you will be fine when you actually do bring it over unless we are talking about say half million.

Another point, if you indeed did soft landing, you did not need to provide gtf anyway. Search these forums on more about this.

I don't think there should be any problem at all. I remember going to France and bought plenty of faith based jewelry. Pretty surprising tbh, considering the confusing religions in France. I'm a believer and when I saw the jewelries I guess I just couldn't hold myself. Anyways, I brought all of those jewelries with me through the security check in airport. I had all of them with me in an inside pocket of my jacket and I only got asked once. Nobody held me back or something like that at all.

. It's essential to have all necessary documentation when traveling with valuable items like gold jewelry, as customs regulations vary by country and can be strict. To ensure a smooth process at the airport, I recommend reaching out to the customs authority or the relevant department beforehand to clarify their requirements and discuss your situation. They can provide you with specific guidance on how to proceed and any additional documentation you may need to bring. Overall, it's best to address this concern proactively to avoid any issues during your travel.

No, it shouldn't be a problem. The stamped Goods to Follow list is the crucial document. Be prepared to describe the jewelry in detail if asked. If concerned, contact customs for further clarification.
