5000g Fine Silver Ingot, "Umicore" Brand: Guaranteed Quality and Authenticity

Introducing our exceptional 5000g fine silver ingot, proudly bearing the renowned "Umicore" brand. This top-tier ingot is crafted with precision and care, ensuring excellent quality and a pristine condition. It comes sealed in its original plastic pouch, providing added protection.

The authenticity guarantee is engraved directly on the ingot itself, displaying the mark "Fine Silver 999,0," representing its pure silver content of 999 parts per thousand.

At Euporos SA, we prioritize optimal quality and undeniable authenticity for all the ingots we offer. That's why we source our products directly from a highly reputable refinery, subject to regular state-controlled inspections. These silver bars, along with our gold bars, are approved as Good London Delivery (GLD) on the international precious metals market, certified by the prestigious London Bullion Market Association (LBMA). This accreditation ensures their worldwide marketability.

Tax Considerations: VAT and Storage Options

Unlike gold, silver is subject to value-added tax (VAT). To cater to your preferences, Euporos SA provides two storage options:

1. Storage in Switzerland: Opt for storing your silver in Switzerland, where VAT applies.

2. Storage in an "Open Customs Bonded Warehouse": Select our warehouse solution, exempt from VAT. While physically located in Switzerland, the goods remain within a designated "under customs" zone. Only when they leave this zone are customs duties and VAT applicable. As long as the goods are kept within the warehouse, they are entirely exempt from these charges. There are no time limits for storage duration.

Please note that, due to tax regulations, we can only store imported ingots in this facility, not those manufactured in Switzerland. We have carefully chosen the reputable brand "Umicore," a renowned European multinational, for this purpose.

Storage Fees and Personal Allocation

The storage fees for VAT-exempted ingots are equivalent to the fees for storing VAT-applicable ingots in Switzerland. These fees amount to 1% of the deposit value, with an additional 0.2% for insurance coverage.

Rest assured that each ingot is allocated to you personally, accompanied by a detailed storage certificate. Every ingot bears its unique serial number, reinforcing the individual ownership and ensuring transparency.

Sell-back Option and Customs Clearance

At any time, you have the option to sell your ingots back to Euporos SA. If you choose to collect them in person or have them shipped to your location, customs clearance charges and the VAT of the destination country must be settled. These fees are calculated based on the ingot's value at the time of withdrawal from the customs bonded warehouse.

We aim to provide you with the utmost convenience and security throughout your precious metal investment journey. Trust Euporos SA for unrivaled quality, transparency, and comprehensive services.

Feel free to contact our dedicated team to explore your options, receive further guidance, or initiate a transaction.

VAT: Silver (and additional services such as delivery, certificate of authenticity, etc.) is subject to value added tax (VAT) in Switzerland and the European Union. If delivery is in Switzerland (shipping or storage), Swiss VAT of 8,1% applies. If delivery is to outside Switzerland, the customs duties and VAT of the destination country apply and must be paid by the recipient upon receiving the parcel.

DELIVERY: Delivery charges depend on weight, value and method chosen (storage in Switzerland, customs bonded storage, delivery in Switzerland, export delivery, pick-up from site).
