Dubai has established itself as a global hub for gold trading, attracting buyers seeking direct purchases from LBMA-certified and local refineries. However, purchasing gold directly from refineries involves complex financial transactions, regulatory requirements, and risk mitigation. This is where escrow services play a vital role in ensuring secure and compliant transactions.
Why Escrow Services Are Essential for Refinery-Direct Gold Purchases
When purchasing gold directly from refineries, buyers must navigate a series of financial and legal obligations, including:
- Regulatory compliance with UAE’s gold trade laws, including VAT and customs requirements.
- Verification of transaction terms to avoid payment disputes or delivery inconsistencies.
- Protection against fraud, ensuring funds are only released when agreed conditions are met.
Escrow services help facilitate these transactions by securely holding funds and distributing them according to predefined contractual terms, eliminating risks for both buyers and sellers.

The Role of Escrow in Avoiding Common Pitfalls
Refinery-direct gold purchases can present risks, including:
- Gold purity disputes due to lack of independent verification.

- Regulatory complications when handling VAT or customs clearances.
