Christmas for the gold market, like in many industries, is a busy time<\/a>. It\u2019s a time of year when lots of people enter the market as investors for the first time, seeking gifts for friends or relatives, or even just personal investments.<\/p>\n

There are a few things we always aim to highlight to give first-time buyers a hand in understanding what\u2019s what. One of them is the fact that there are a variety of tax exemptions available on investment gold \u2013 giving you the opportunity to make substantial savings on both the initial investment and the eventual profit.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a quick overview of the different taxes, and which products are eligible for exemptions.<\/p>\n

VAT free gold<\/h3>\n

Value added tax (VAT)<\/a> is a flat tax rate added on to the price of most goods and services. For most products you buy, 20 per cent of the price will be VAT, though there are some exemptions.<\/p>\n

Any gold that can be considered \u2018investment gold\u2019 is among these exemptions. It\u2019s considered VAT free across the entire European Union. In reality, this applies to the majority of gold products above 90 per cent purity. Almost all of the gold coins<\/a> and gold bars<\/a> on our website are eligible for this VAT exemption but to keep things clear we\u2019ve indicated where this is the case on the products themselves.<\/p>\n

CGT free gold<\/h3>\n

Capital gains tax (CGT) is a tax <\/a>on the eventual profits you make on the sale of a product. For most small time gold investors and dealers, this tax won\u2019t affect you \u2013 since you\u2019d generally have to make over \u00a311,300 worth of profit <\/a>on your investments that tax year before you\u2019ll be eligible to pay CGT.<\/p>\n

Even if you do eventually make profits over this tax free allowance, there are still some gold products that are eligible for CGT exemptions. Principally, these are gold coins produced by the Royal Mint \u2013 the most important being the Gold Sovereign<\/a> and the Gold Britannia<\/a>.<\/p>\n
