Import Tips
• Obtain gemological certificates verifying authenticity and treatment history (e.g
• heat-treated) to avoid misclassification
• Declare exact weight in carats and confirm no mounting to prevent shifts to Chapter 71 headings like 7116
• Check for CITES restrictions if sourced from regions with endangered species concerns for similar stones
