Selling your gold in Paris: the buying counters of the Bourse district, or the refinery directly
In Paris, gold is traditionally sold at the buying counters of the Bourse district, around rue Vivienne. These houses are intermediaries: they collect jewellery, coins and scrap, often at a flat rate per carat, then resell them to a refiner. The other way is to deal directly with the refinery. Gold & Silver Company is a Belgian smelter-refinery of precious metals, approved by the Royal Mint of Belgium and holding the status of approved assayer, which brings together under one roof the laboratory, analysis, melting and refining. The buyback price is published every day, per gram and per carat, and it is net: nothing is added, nothing is deducted. Whether you are in Paris itself, in Neuilly-sur-Seine, Boulogne-Billancourt, Levallois-Perret, Vincennes, Versailles or Saint-Germain-en-Laye, the process is the same.
How to sell from Paris without travelling
Most of our Parisian clients choose to ship. The recommended method is registered mail with acknowledgement of receipt, against signature and with declared value; a call to +32 56 33 19 96 before dispatch lets us prepare the shipment properly. On receipt, the metal is weighed and analysed in the refinery's laboratory, exactly as at the office, and the offer is sent to you within 24 hours, with no obligation to accept: if you decline, your items are returned to you. For those who prefer to come, the refinery is one hour from Paris by TGV, then twenty minutes by road from Lille.
How your gold is valued
The metal is analysed on site and valued at its real fineness, that is its exact fine gold content, at the day's rate, rather than at a flat rate. The appraisal is free, immediate and without any obligation to sell.
How you are paid
Payment is made by bank transfer, a traceable and secure means, within five working days of your agreement. Belgian law limits to 500 euros the amount that may be paid in cash when a professional buys precious metals.
What tax applies to a French resident who sells gold in Belgium
In France, the sale of precious metals is subject to the flat-rate tax on precious metals (TFMP), at 11.5% for investment gold, CRDS included, unless the seller opts for the actual capital-gains regime where it is more favourable. When the sale takes place in Belgium, the Belgian professional does not withhold this French tax and sends no tax declaration of your sale to the French administration. If in doubt about your situation, call us on +32 56 33 19 96.
