Frequently asked
Do you ship worldwide?+
Yes. DIAMO ELITE ships fully insured to every country we can legally export loose lab-grown diamonds to. Every shipment is tracked door-to-door with FedEx / Malca-Amit and requires a signature on delivery.
Is shipping free?+
Yes. Free fully insured worldwide shipping is included in every diamond price. There are no hidden certificate, handling or courier fees at checkout.
How long does delivery take?+
Every order goes through up to 3 business days of preparation (final QC, IGI verification and secure packaging) before the delivery clock starts. In-stock stones then dispatch and the delivery timeline shown on the site (typically 2–3 weeks for made-to-order stones, or 2–5 business day transit for in-stock stones) applies from the moment the parcel leaves our vault.
How are diamonds packaged and secured?+
Every parcel is sealed in tamper-evident IGI packaging with a matching RFID authenticity token, dispatched inside discreet outer packaging under a specialist-carrier waybill. You receive tracking credentials and can verify the RFID chain of custody at any point after delivery.
Will I pay customs, duties or import taxes?+
Loose lab-grown diamonds ship under HS 7104.21 / 7104.91, which is duty-free in most markets. Standard import VAT / GST / consumption tax still applies on arrival (UK 20%, Norway 25%, Australia 10%, Japan 10%). US shipments may carry a Section 301 tariff (~7.5%) on China-origin goods. Our shipping estimator shows the applicable rate per country before you check out.
Can I return a diamond?+
Yes. Every stock diamond ships with a 14-day loupe-in-hand return window from the day the parcel is signed for. The stone must arrive back in its original IGI tamper-evident seal with the certificate and RFID token intact. Once we verify the seal, we refund in full to the original payment method within 5 business days.
Are made-to-order and custom stones returnable?+
Made-to-order stones (grown or cut specifically for you — e.g. non-stocked shapes or ≥4ct custom carat) are non-refundable once IGI grading has started, because the stone is bespoke to your order. Up to that point the reservation can be cancelled with a full refund. We confirm this in writing before charging.
What if the diamond is damaged or lost in transit?+
Every shipment is fully insured at declared value from our vault to your door. In the rare event of loss or damage in transit, we open a claim with the carrier immediately and either replace the stone with an identical-spec IGI-certified diamond or refund the full purchase price — your choice.
How do I start a return?+
Email info@diamoelite.com or use the contact form with your order number. We'll issue prepaid insured return labels, arrange a courier pickup, and refund within 5 business days of the stone arriving back with its seal intact.
