Transaction Flow
Gold Transaction Process
International gold sourcing discussions typically follow a structured transaction framework. Understanding this process helps buyers prepare for professional coordination and documentation flow.

The buyer submits an inquiry or Letter of Intent (LOI) outlining quantity requirements, destination country, and product interest.
Full Corporate Offer (FCO)
The seller issues a Full Corporate Offer describing product details, indicative terms, and initial transaction structure.
Sales & Purchase Agreement (SPA)
Once discussions progress, the buyer and seller review and sign the Sales & Purchase Agreement outlining the transaction framework.
Assay & Verification
Gold purity confirmation typically involves professional assay verification or refinery testing depending on the transaction structure.
Export Coordination
Export procedures involve documentation preparation, logistics planning, and coordination aligned with applicable regulations.
