It is made clear during training that we may not begin the circle until we are within the TERPS obstacle clearance zone, even if we have the airport in sight sooner.

Absolutely correct, and consistant with FAA procedures.
That was my direct quote, aterpster...not what you 'quoted'.....

And, what if the Jepp chart for ABC Airport in Country Z doesn't proclaim either TERPS or PANS-OPS on the lower left margin of the chart?
Do you not know what procedures are normally used at the airport of intended landing?
If not, why not?
