Chapter 71: Natural or cultured pearls; precious stones
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 710510 when importing or exporting dust and powder made from diamonds. This could include fine diamond dust used in industrial applications or for jewelry polishing. If you have shipments of diamond abrasives, this code is likely applicable.
This code specifically covers dust and powder derived from diamonds, distinguishing it from other precious stones like rubies or sapphires, which fall under different HS codes. For example, HS-6 710490 covers similar dust from other precious or semi-precious stones.
When classifying your product, consider whether it is exclusively diamond-based. If your shipment contains a mixture of different stone powders, you may need to look at a broader classification under the heading for other precious stones.
Be aware that the purity and intended use of the diamond dust can affect its classification. For instance, diamond dust used for industrial grinding may be treated differently than that intended for jewelry applications.
