About gold in Chile
In Chile, 18-karat gold (75% purity) is colloquially known as "primera ley" ("first-grade" or "first-law" gold) and is the dominant standard for fine jewellery, distinct from the 22K/24K standards common in South Asia and the Middle East. Unlike Spain, Chile has no compulsory state hallmarking law — purity marks are applied voluntarily by jewellers and refiners, so buyers are commonly advised to confirm purity through an independent assay rather than relying solely on a stamped mark.
Market notes for Chile
Chile's Internal Revenue Service (SII) issued Resolution No. 48 in April 2026 setting updated tax rates specifically for small artisan miners and SMEs selling gold and silver ore, reflecting an active, currently-evolving tax framework for the country's smaller-scale mining sector.
Buying gold in Chile
A Chilean gold or jewellery purchase carries two layered taxes -- a luxury import tax plus standard IVA -- so confirm with the seller whether a quoted price is import-inclusive before assuming it reflects only the underlying metal value.
Tax and duty notes for Chile
Imported gold, platinum, jewellery and precious stones face a 15% luxury import tax in Chile on top of the country's standard 19% IVA (VAT), which applies broadly to both domestic and imported goods. Small artisan miners and SMEs selling gold/silver ore are separately subject to updated rates under SII Resolution No. 48 (April 2026).

Methodology
How we calculate the price
- We fetch the international spot gold price (XAU/USD) live from gold-api.com, with automatic failover between providers.
- The spot rate is converted into the local currency using live exchange rates from exchangerate-api.com, then scaled by purity (24K, 22K, 18K…) and by weight (gram, tola, ounce, kilogram, baht).
- The result is the pure spot value. Retail counters may add dealer premium, tax and making charges — the number here is the underlying benchmark.
