Frequently Asked Questions
How is gold traded in Singapore?
Singapore is a major gold trading hub in Asia with no GST on investment-grade gold. The Singapore Bullion Market Association (SBMA) facilitates institutional trading, making Singapore an attractive location for gold investment.
Is gold GST-free in Singapore?
Yes, investment-grade gold is exempt from Singapore's Goods and Services Tax (currently 9%). To qualify, gold must have a purity of at least 99.5% and be in the form of a bar, ingot, wafer, or coin that is, or was, legal tender. This exemption, introduced in 2012, also applies to silver (99.9%+) and platinum (99%+). Gold jewelry and items below the purity threshold are subject to GST.
Where can I buy gold in Singapore?
Gold can be purchased from several reputable sources in Singapore. UOB (United Overseas Bank) sells physical gold directly from select branches. Specialist bullion dealers such as BullionStar, GoldSilver Central, and SGPMX offer a wide range of bars and coins. For gold jewelry, Little India and Chinatown host established jewelers. Online platforms and bank gold savings accounts (UOB, OCBC) provide convenient alternatives to physical purchase.
Is gold taxed in Singapore?
Singapore does not impose capital gains tax on individuals, which means profits from buying and selling gold are generally tax-free for personal investors. Investment-grade gold is also exempt from GST. This combination of no capital gains tax and GST exemption makes Singapore one of the most tax-efficient jurisdictions in the world for gold investment, which is a key reason the city-state has attracted significant bullion trading activity.
