Import Tips
• Obtain GIA or equivalent gemological certification verifying nonindustrial use and worked status to avoid reclassification
• Declare exact carat weight, color, clarity, and cut; discrepancies can lead to penalties or duty adjustments
• Use secure packaging and insurance; loose diamonds are high-value and prone to loss or damage claims
