GIA’s Same-Day Service Now Available Everywhere
The new service, introduced to stem fraud related to lab-grown diamonds, will be offered at no cost for the time being.

Launched Jan. 10 in New York after reports surfaced about lab-grown diamonds inscribed with GIA report numbers for natural diamonds, the service confirms that the GIA-graded diamond matches its corresponding GIA report.
The service is available for GIA-graded diamonds with and without inscriptions, and there will be no cost for a limited time.
The lab said while turnaround time ultimately will depend on volume and local conditions, the service should take 15 minutes for one loose diamond; 1 hour for two to five diamonds; and 24 hours for six or more diamonds.
GIA also will do report confirmation for diamonds mounted in jewelry, though it notes that will take longer.
Existing clients with a current GIA client agreement can submit diamonds for confirmation by requesting “Report Confirmation Service.”
The lab said it will accept both walk-in and courier submissions, although walk-in clients will be accommodated more quickly.
If possible, the original GIA report, or a facsimile of it, should accompany the submitted diamond.
For more information, visit the GIA website.
Clients with questions about the same-day report confirmation service can contact their client service representative or email the lab at labservice@gia.edu.
Those who are not GIA clients but are interested in the service can start the client application process online.
