The debut of the completely digital GIA Diamond Dossier, the world’s most publicly available diamond grading report, in 2023 represents an important milestone in the worldwide diamond industry’s digital revolution. The GIA Diamond Dossier is available for D-through-Z diamonds weighing 0.15 to 1.99 carats that have not been treated with colour. Printed GIA Diamond Dossier reports issued before to January 2023 continue to be valid.
“The unveiling of the digital GIA Diamond Dossier report begins the migration of all GIA’s laboratory reports to a modern digital format,” stated Tom Moses, GIA Executive Vice President and Chief Laboratory and Research Officer. This significant move enhances data security, increases supply chain efficiency, and minimises our dependency on paper.”
On Monday, January 2, 2023, the first digital GIA Diamond Dossier report was released at the GIA laboratory in Ramat Gan, Israel. Since the service’s inception in 1998, more than 33 million printed GIA Diamond Dossier reports have been sent.
“In 2025, when all GIA reports are digital, retailers and customers will enjoy more convenience and a more immersive experience,” said Pritesh Patel, GIA’s Chief Operating Officer. Eliminating printed reports is a significant step forward, since it reduces the environmental effect of utilising, transporting, and storing the almost 40 tonnes of paper and plastic used in printed GIA reports each year.”
The safe digital GIA Diamond Dossier is now available in the redesigned GIA App as well as on computers, tablets, and phones via the strong and secure online GIA Report Check Service and the GIA sophisticated application programming interface (API) for business customers. The digital report service contains a Report Access Card with the report number, a QR code that links to the digital report, and 4Cs information that may be included in receipts, invoices, and e-commerce sites.
The new GIA App for Apple and Android smartphones is widely accessible. The Android app for China is still being developed and will be released at a later date. The GIA Match iDTM inscription matching service will be available solely through the reinvented GIA App in the first half of 2023.
