Gold Investment Guide for Kuwait

Digital Gold vs Physical Gold
In Kuwait, you can buy physical gold from local jewelers or digital gold through apps. Physical gold incurs making charges (8-25%), while digital gold is pure 24K investment with no making charges, stored in insured vaults.
Taxation on Gold
Gold jewelry purchases attract 3% GST. If you sell physical gold within 3 years, Short Term Capital Gains (STCG) tax applies. After 3 years, Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) tax is applicable at 20% with indexation benefits.
Checklist Before Buying
1. Check the BIS Hallmark (Triangle + Purity + 6-digit code).
