Why VAT-Free Silver?

It's VAT-free

We are offering investors the opportunity to buy and store silver without having to pay the normal 20% VAT. 1oz silver Britannia coins and 1kg silver bars will be stored with Brink's in Switzerland. Your silver will be fully insured at all times and independently audited by Rödl & Partner, one of the world’s leading audit and advisory firms.

As your bullion will be stored in LBMA accredited storage facilities no VAT will be due unless in the future you opt for physical delivery, meaning you will receive a lot more silver for your money.

We strongly believe our VAT-free silver storage proposition offers UK investors a cost-effective and secure way to buy and store physical silver bullion.


Silver Britannia Capital Gain Tax Exemption

Silver Britannia coins are classified as legal tender and are exempt from any capital gains tax. British silver Britannia coins contain one ounce of fine silver at 999 purity. If you are looking to make a sizable purchase, VAT-free 1 oz silver Britannia’s offer you the unique combination of being VAT-free and Capital Gains exempt.

For larger UK investors looking to invest in silver, these two tax benefits offer an excellent way to make a tax-efficient investment in this alternative precious metal.


You can sell your bullion back to us at any time or request delivery

At any time you can sell your silver back to us or request physical delivery. We offer highly competitive sale rates and payments will be made by bank transfer directly into your linked account. If you decide you want to take physical delivery of your silver VAT will become payable.


It's stored outside the banking system

Buying and storing VAT-free silver allows you to hold a percentage of your portfolio outside the financial system. During times of political and financial instability this reduces your reliance on the banking system, reduces counterparty risk and helps further diversify your wealth.

Switzerland has a proud history of upholding individual property rights and continues to be one the world’s most trusted locations for buying, storing and refining precious metals.
