Import Tips
• Obtain CITES permits if pearl size/color suggests wild harvest from protected Pinctada margaritifera; non-compliance leads to seizure
• Avoid over 90% uniformity in grading claims without third-party verification to prevent fraud allegations
• Separate lots by color grade (e.g
• AAA black) on entry summary for accurate statistical breakout
