About gold in Ireland
Ireland's Dublin Assay Office, founded in 1637 by royal charter of King Charles I, is one of the oldest hallmarking authorities in the world and remains the country's sole hallmarking body today, marking gold with the distinctive Hibernia symbol. Irish law is notably strict: all gold, silver, platinum and palladium items are subject to compulsory assay with no minimum-weight exemption and no negative tolerance allowed — a stricter standard than many countries that exempt small items like thin rings or earrings from mandatory hallmarking.
Market notes for Ireland
Ireland follows the EU-wide VAT exemption for investment gold: bars and coins of 995+ fineness, 1 gram or more, sold near their intrinsic gold value, are VAT-free, while gold jewellery and other non-qualifying gold products carry Ireland's standard VAT.
Buying gold in Ireland
Selling gold for a profit in Ireland is subject to capital gains tax at 33%, with only a modest annual exemption of €1,270 per person -- worth knowing before treating a gold purchase purely as a tax-free investment, since the VAT exemption on buying doesn't extend to any later profit on selling.
Tax and duty notes for Ireland
Qualifying investment gold (995+ fine bars and coins, 1 gram or more, priced near intrinsic gold value) is VAT-exempt in Ireland under EU-wide investment-gold rules. Gold jewellery and other non-qualifying gold products carry Ireland's standard VAT rate. Profit from selling gold is subject to capital gains tax at 33%, with an annual exemption threshold of €1,270 per person as of 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.
