Hi all,

I would like to know about shipping engagement rings internationally (in this case from the USA to Bahrain). DHL do not ship jewellery and FedEx do, however they only insureitems up to $500. We have contents insurance, but apparently this is void if the items are out of your care.

So how do people usually insure their jewellery when shipping overseas?

Thanks,
Mandie :)

You might try carriers of high value items such as Brinks. They may offer you a solution. Be certain of the Custom''s regulations in the country you are shipping to. They can be very arbitrary and hold things up or refuse entry over very minor issues.

Thanks for the advice oldminer. I will be using Brinks to ship from Bahrain to New York. Do you know what the customs policy is in the US? Will my diamond be subject ot duty or taxes?

Thanks,
Mandie
