These 2 wealthy nations have high demand, but custom procedures are strict and complicated. Taxes and VAT are very high like 8% and 17% for China and 20% and 18% for Russia respectively. Major Cities in China with high trade volumes in gemstones are Panyu, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing and for Russia are Moscow, St. Petersburg, Ekaterinburg, Kostroma.

Extreme Precision Cut Gemstones

Innovating and improving the gemstone cutting standards is the way to the future. To bring out the brilliance and luster, a gem should be cut with fine precision with great detail and care, thus a fine cut gemstone always stands out from the group.

We strive to improve where ever possible, and now also cut to the precision for use in watches and items set in jewellery by machines. Either be a faceted or a cabochon, regular shape or fancy shape, perfectly matching colours or graduated colour sets, we can do it all.

Thai Goverment Policy to Promote Colour Stone Trade

29th June will be recorded as a major initial step towards promoting Thailand as a major cutting center for colourstones of all kinds. Prime Minister Abhisit has declared to waive VAT on importing rough colour stones (HS 7103.10.00). Only items sold will be taxed at 1%, rest can be re-exported without any taxes or formalities.

Also an initiative to promote Thai cut and polished stones as "Ploy Thai" was brought up as a branding strategy for stones cut and polished in Thailand. This can include gemstones mined anywhere else but imported and cut and polished in Thailand.

We at Gandhi Enterprises are very pleased with such initiatives and policies as it will help our stones which are cut and polished in Thailand and also will help other individuals here in Thailand who work together to strengthen the image of "Ploy Thai".

Gems & Jewellery Fairs

Now days gems & jewellery fairs are just about the organisers making money and not for the benefit of exhibitors, this is what we think.

This is why we have decided to opt out from most of these exhibitions and market out products in other more creative and economical ways. We want the cost benefit by saving the unnecessary expense from exhibitions and passing them to our customers. We beleive that the customers should get the best service and price and we continually try to evolve to meet this criteria, at the same time building and strengthening our brand and product value.
