About gold in Venezuela
Venezuela's central bank liquidated a significant share of its gold reserves during 2025, using bullion as emergency dollar-liquidity amid sanctions and a collapse in oil-export revenue — reserves reportedly fell sharply as gold was sold to help sustain the official exchange rate. This illustrates a pattern seen in several sanctioned or crisis-hit economies: gold reserves being treated as a mobilisable financial asset of last resort rather than a fixed, untouchable store of value.
Market notes for Venezuela
Venezuela's general customs duty rates range 5-35% on the CIF value of imports, and a decree in place through June 2026 exempts a wide range of goods -- including purchases by individuals using their own resources -- from VAT and import duties, though the exemption's scope for gold or jewellery specifically is not clearly documented.
Buying gold in Venezuela
Venezuela's tax treatment of gold and jewellery imports is not clearly documented in available sources, and the country's broader VAT/duty exemption decree is set to expire in June 2026 -- confirm current rules directly with a Venezuelan dealer or customs authority before relying on any figure for a transaction.
Tax and duty notes for Venezuela
No reliable, gold- or jewellery-specific VAT or customs figure for Venezuela could be confirmed in available sources. Venezuela's general customs duty ranges 5-35% on CIF value, and Decreto N° 5.197 (Gaceta Oficial N° 6.952 Extraordinario, December 31, 2025 — replacing the prior Decreto N° 5.146) exempts many imports from VAT and duties through December 31, 2026 — but whether this extends to gold or jewellery specifically was not documented, so this is stated as a genuine gap rather than a guess.

Methodology
How we calculate the price
- We fetch the international spot gold price (XAU/USD) live from xaus.com + 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.
