How do you buy gold in RAK Economic Zone (RAKEZ)?

RAK Economic Zone (RAKEZ) is a free zone in the United Arab Emirates and an active market for physical gold. Guyana Gold Mines supplies origin gold from Guyana directly to buyers here, from raw and dore gold through to refined bars, on payment-after-assay terms. RAKEZ trading companies and industrial gold users all source through this market.

This page explains who buys gold in RAK Economic Zone (RAKEZ), how import duty and VAT apply, how consignments are delivered and cleared, and how to buy safely from a documented, regulated origin. The commercial logic is simple: you receive gold whose source you can trace, assayed and settled in Dubai, rather than anonymous material carrying reputational and compliance risk.

A large multi-sector free zone; gold clears via Dubai under secured transport There is no direct flight between Guyana and the UAE, so shipments route through a European or North American hub with typical air transit of eighteen to twenty-four hours plus handling.

Throughout, the metal stays inside a secured, insured chain until it reaches the agreed assay point. For buyers in RAK Economic Zone (RAKEZ), that means the same reliable handover whether you are in a souk district, a mainland office or a free zone facility.

Free zone and federal gold due diligence rules apply The UAE has tightened due diligence across the gold supply chain, and importers increasingly need to show where their gold comes from.

This is where a single, regulated origin matters. Our gold is overseen at source by the Guyana Gold Board, and the documentation follows the metal from a named mining region to your assay in RAK Economic Zone (RAKEZ). That is a deliberate contrast to anonymous, mixed-origin dore, and it makes compliance and record-keeping straightforward for the buyer.
