Expertly Managing Your Gold Transactions in Ghana
Assaying and Verification
In Ghana, the gold supply chain often includes unrefined or semi-refined gold. We provide accurate, independent gold purity testing through XRF analysis at our Nairobi lab, with options for collaboration with accredited Ghana-based labs. We verify assay reports, test samples before purchase, and confirm the true gold content — reducing risk of overpayment or fraud.
Buyer & Seller Matching
The Ghanaian gold market includes many small-scale miners and brokers, but not all are compliant or credible. Afriswiss connects you with pre-vetted, verified sellers in Ghana from our trusted West African network. Whether you’re looking for dore bars or raw ore, we match you with sellers who meet international trade standards and have valid licenses.
Transaction Documentation
Ghana’s export processes require precise and complete documentation. We handle and verify key documents including:
Pro forma invoices
Assay certificates
Export permits from the Ghana Minerals Commission
Customs clearance paperwork
We ensure all paperwork is in order before money or metal changes hands, helping you avoid costly delays or legal issues.
Taxation & Cross-Border Compliance
Ghana has strict gold export laws, including tax and royalty obligations. We guide you through:
GRA (Ghana Revenue Authority) requirements
VAT & royalty payments for gold exports
BOE (Bill of Entry) protocols
We also ensure your transactions align with international AML laws and FATF guidelines, making cross-border transfers seamless and compliant.
Financing & Banking Support
Navigating payments for gold purchases in Ghana requires experience. We help with:
Identifying secure payment methods (e.g., escrow, LC, or regulated partners)
Advising on local vs offshore payments
Connecting with financial partners who specialize in commodities finance
We’ve assisted several institutions and corporates in safely structuring their gold transactions from Ghana.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — but under new 2025 regulations, all gold from Ghana must be purchased and exported through the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) or licensed Ghanaian entities. Foreign buyers can no longer purchase gold directly from miners without going through GoldBod-approved channels.
GoldBod is the official government body responsible for regulating, assaying, buying, and exporting gold in Ghana. It replaced many roles of the PMMC and now serves as the central authority ensuring traceable, legal gold trade from artisanal and industrial sources.
Yes. Afriswiss partners with licensed Ghanaian aggregators and exporters, and we work within the GoldBod system to ensure all transactions are legal, verified, and compliant with Ghanaian law. We guide you through every step — from seller matching to documentation and export.
