Import Tips
• Use tamper-evident packaging to prove stranding unchanged during transit, aiding CBP verification
• Report average grade metrics (e.g
• 10-12mm, AA quality) accurately; undervaluation risks penalties
• Partner with certified appraisers for grading validation to preempt disputes on pearl quality claims
