Frequently asked questions about buying VAT-free silver

Your silver is stored in a customs warehouse in Switzerland. Because this is considered "no man's land," you do not have to pay VAT as long as it remains there. We only charge storage fees.

How do I know I'm buying silver from a reliable supplier?
