Import Tips
• Obtain gemological certification (e.g
• GIA report) verifying natural origin and specifications to support classification and avoid synthetic stone disputes
• Declare exact weight, carat size, and treatment history (e.g
• heat-treated) on entry documents, as undisclosed enhancements may trigger reclassification
• Ensure stones are not mounted or strung; temporarily strung for transport must be declared as ungraded under 7103.10
