(via jckonline) According to Jewelers Vigilance Committee importers of rough diamonds must now fax a copy of the Kimberley Process Certification arriving with the imported diamonds to the U.S. Census Bureau upon making any entry with U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Good luck!
I really don't know how effective the Kimberley Process Certification concept is in other parts of the world. There are rough diamonds arriving from god-knows-where, but most likely from the continent of Africa or Russian federation into Southeast Asia and South Asia. I think the couriers are aware of the risks but still they are taking chances to find a buyer, especially in Southeast Asia.
