Import Tips
• Obtain export permits from mining authorities specifying 'miners' diamonds' to comply with CITES-like regulations for rough stones
• Avoid common pitfall of mixing with sorted parcels; segregate shipments to maintain 7102.21.10 classification
• Include photos or videos of raw state in documentation for CBP verification
