Kimberley Process Certification Scheme: semi cut diamonds require KPCS certification and compliance for imports and exports. Semi-cut diamonds remain subject to the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme: minor polishing that produces only a few small facets does not remove a stone from KPCS coverage, and imports or exports of semi-cut diamonds must be accompanied by the required KPCS certificate. Trade/Public Notices should be issued to publicise this obligation and any implementation difficulties reported to the central export promotion authority.
