Frequently asked questions

Is buying gold a wise choice?

Buying gold can be a wise choice, especially in times of economic uncertainty or inflation. Historically, gold has retained its value well and offers protection against declining currency purchasing power. In addition, physical gold is a tangible asset that you can keep outside the financial system...

What should I look out for when buying physical gold?

At GoldRepublic, you can buy whole gold bars or become a co-owner of a bar. If you become a co-owner, you pay NO bar reservation fees and you may be allocated anew bar every day. Legally, this makes no difference. You are still the(co-)owner of physical gold. The gold is delivered to you. You still know which bar you own (based on the bar number). Only in the event that, due to extreme circumstances, GoldRepublic is no longer able to provide its services, will you have to agree with the co-owners on what to do with the bar (sell or melt it down). If you reserve your own bar, this is not the case.

Are gold bars exempt from VAT?

Yes, investment gold is exempt from VAT in the United Kingdom and throughout the European Union. This exemption applies to gold bars with a purity of at least99.5% (24 carats). All gold bars you purchase through GoldRepublic must meet these conditions and are therefore exempt from VAT.

Do I have to declare gold as an asset to the tax authorities?

In the Netherlands, you must declare physical gold that you own as assets in box 3 of your tax return. The reference date used for this is 1 January of the tax year for which you are filing your return. This means you declare the value of your gold on 1 January, based on the gold price on that day. However, always check with your tax adviser to see what applies to your personal situation.
