Duty-free import entitlement for raw pearls and precious stones allowed against legacy REP licences under transitional Exim provisions. Imports of raw pearls and precious or semi-precious stones, unset and uncut, are eligible for duty exemption when imported against Replenishment Licences and Gem Replenishment Licences issued under the earlier Exim Policy whose validity has not expired; the policy provisions were relocated without material change and transitional arrangements preserve the effect of previously issued licences, and customs authorities are to allow the exemption and issue a public notice.
