Gold & Precious Metals

We are fully committed to responsible gold sourcing, ethical trade practices, and strict compliance with UAE regulations and international standards.
To ensure transparency, traceability, and smooth regulatory clearance, all gold transactions—particularly gold originating from high-risk or conflict-affected regions such as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)—are subject to the following mandatory compliance procedure prior to shipment.

 

1. Supplier Due Diligence (KYC Requirements)

All suppliers must provide complete and verifiable Know Your Customer (KYC) documentation, including:

Valid company trade license

Full details of Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBO)

Clear copies of passports for owners and/or authorized signatories

This step ensures the legitimacy of counterparties and alignment with UAE anti-money laundering (AML) regulations.

 

2. Proof of Gold Origin

To confirm lawful and responsible sourcing, suppliers must disclose:

Confirmation of whether the gold originates from mining activities

Name of the mine and/or mining company

Valid mining license or local purchase permit issued by the competent authorities in the country of origin (e.g., Congo)

 

3. Chain of Custody Documentation

A transparent and continuous chain of custody must be demonstrated, clearly documenting the movement of gold through all stages:

Mine → Trader → Exporter → Al Masar Al Thahabi Commercial Broker

This documentation is essential to ensure traceability and prevent illicit supply chain risks.

 

4. Declaration of Ethical & Conflict-Free Sourcing

Suppliers are required to submit a signed declaration confirming that the gold is:

Not associated with armed conflict

Not linked to illegal financing, terrorism, or money laundering

Not involving forced labor or child labor

This declaration supports compliance with responsible sourcing frameworks and international ethical standards.

 

5. Assay & Quality Verification

A valid Assay Certificate issued by an accredited testing authority

Preferably conducted prior to shipment

Re-assay upon arrival in the UAE may be required, subject to regulatory or contractual conditions

 

Regulatory Compliance Notice

All documentation listed above is mandatory.
Failure to provide complete and accurate information may result in:

Customs clearance delays

Shipment detention

Extended regulatory reviews or investigations by UAE authorities

Our compliance procedures are designed to protect all parties, ensure legal certainty, and uphold the integrity of the gold supply chain.
