Buying gold in Dubai

Dubai is a emirate 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. Refineries, DMCC bullion traders, Gold Souk wholesalers and jewellery manufacturers all source through this market.

This page explains who buys gold in Dubai, 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.

Who buys gold here

Refineries, DMCC bullion traders, Gold Souk wholesalers and jewellery manufacturers The market in Dubai spans wholesale supply, refining feedstock, jewellery manufacturing and investment demand, and the products that move here reflect that mix: Gold Dore Bars, Unwrought Gold, Raw Gold, 1 Kg Gold Bars (Kilobars) and Gold Bullion.

Because we sell direct from the source, we can match the exact form, purity and volume a buyer in Dubai needs, and we mirror the RFQ language used locally, from AU content and karat purity to CIF Dubai delivery and settlement after inspection.

Products for this market

Import duty, VAT and declarations

Gold enters the UAE customs union free of customs duty. 0% customs duty on gold; free zone re-export outside the customs territory On tax, the standard VAT rate applies broadly, but investment-grade gold of the required fineness is zero-rated, and qualifying business-to-business supplies use the reverse charge. 5% VAT applies broadly; investment gold of 99% and above is zero-rated and B2B supplies use the reverse charge

High-value gold cargo is declared on entry to the UAE in line with local rules. We prepare the export, origin and assay documentation an importer needs so that clearance into Dubai is clean and predictable. Nothing on this page is tax advice; buyers should confirm their own position with a UAE adviser.

Process

How the gold reaches you

    Send your requirement

    Tell us the product, quantity and terms you need for delivery to Dubai. We reply with a clear offer and no fees to proceed.

  2. 2

    Agree the contract

    We sign a short sale and purchase agreement with an LBMA-linked price and payment after assay. Trial orders can scale into monthly tranches.

  3. 3

    Secured delivery

    Secured logistics to Dubai typically move Brinks-to-Brinks with final assay and settlement on arrival

  4. 4

    Assay and settlement

    The gold is assayed on arrival and settlement follows on the confirmed content, commonly within twenty-four to seventy-two hours.

Logistics and delivery

Secured logistics to Dubai typically move Brinks-to-Brinks with final assay and settlement on arrival 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 Dubai, that means the same reliable handover whether you are in a souk district, a mainland office or a free zone facility.

Regulation, compliance and origin

Imports follow the UAE gold due diligence regulations; declarations above the cash-equivalent threshold are made at entry 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 Dubai. That is a deliberate contrast to anonymous, mixed-origin dore, and it makes compliance and record-keeping straightforward for the buyer.
