Hi all, I have a very very dear friend of mine living in Italy and she is considering investing in bullion. Can anyone give me some insights on the best way to do this and all the pitfalls etc. What are the taxes on PM like over there etc and storage solutions would be handy also. Thanks in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I recommend CELTICGOLD CG IOM Ltd. Phone: +44 20 8144 4339 Phone: +353 76 602 55 11 Mobile: +353 86 22 77 576 Mail: [email protected] Web: www.celticgold.eu you can email Stefan Kraemer, they deliver gold bullion to the closest airport to your friend in europe/Italy for collection. there is a VAT (GST) to pay in italy, i think from memory 19% on silver and not sure on gold but Stefan can advise you. see under newsletter July 2011 information on VAT. http://www.celticgold.eu/Daily-News.htm
^^^ Oh, never heard of CelticGold before, Chilli. Thanks for that...I'll have a look through their site, particularly as it's on the Isle of Mann, which is a UK tax haven. Maybe I could get my aunt, who lives over there, to store some bullion under her mattress for me! :lol: And here's a mint on another UK tax haven which also offers storage options. http://www.guernseymint.com/ I've only had the briefest of dealings with these folk but they were very professional and helpful AND the other day they sent me one of their 1/10oz fine gold Doubles worth about 120GBP FREE AS A SAMPLE!
