Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Umicore 5g Gold Bar VAT-free?

Yes. The Umicore 5g bar is 999.9 fine gold and qualifies as investment gold under UK law, making it fully exempt from VAT.

Is the Umicore 5g Gold Bar CGT-exempt?

No. Gold bars are not UK legal tender and are therefore subject to Capital Gains Tax for UK residents. If CGT exemption is important to you, consider a CGT-free gold coin such as a Sovereign or Britannia instead.

Is Umicore a reputable gold refiner?

Yes. Umicore is a Belgian precious metals and materials technology company and one of the world's most respected gold refiners. It holds LBMA Good Delivery accreditation, ensuring its bars meet the highest international standards for purity and weight. Umicore bars are accepted by dealers and institutions globally.

What does individually serialised mean?

Each Umicore 5g gold bar has a unique serial number stamped on it and recorded on its assay certificate. This allows the bar's authenticity and provenance to be independently verified at any point — providing confidence for both buyers and sellers.

Why buy a 5g gold bar rather than a larger bar?

A 5g bar offers an affordable, low-commitment way to start building a gold holding or add to an existing portfolio without the higher capital outlay of larger bars. It's also popular as a gift. For a full breakdown of which size suits different needs, read: Gold Bars by Size: Which Should You Buy?
