Can gem stores ship jewellery internationally?

Ravana Tour Specialist August 19, 2026

Yes, trustworthy licensed gem dealers in Sri Lanka often send high-value loose stones and complete jewellery internationally with fully insured courier services like FedEx, DHL, or specialised secure transport such as Malca-Amit.

This method is a very secure approach for tourists who prefer not to deal with the stress of carrying costly items in their luggage. The dealer takes care of the official NGJA export paperwork, plus the insurance coverage. Just remember that once the parcel arrives in your country, the courier may keep it at customs until you settle any required domestic import duties and local taxes.
