Product Overview
Gold is one of the world’s most valuable precious metals and is widely traded internationally for investment, jewellery manufacturing, refining and industrial applications.

Depending on availability and applicable regulatory requirements, gold may be supplied in the following forms:

Gold Export from Nigeria
Gold is a regulated mineral commodity. Anyone involved in mining, trading, processing, or exporting gold should ensure that the relevant Nigerian regulatory requirements are satisfied before entering into a transaction.
Nigeria’s Mining Cadastre Office administers mineral titles under the Nigerian mining framework, while formal exporters are required to register with the Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC).
For formal Nigerian exports, NEPC identifies documents such as the exporter certificate, commercial invoice, packing list, Nigeria Export Proceed (NXP) form, Clean Certificate of Inspection where applicable, certificate of origin, and relevant shipping documents as part of export documentation.
All gold transactions should therefore be conducted through properly authorized and verifiable parties and in accordance with applicable Nigerian and destination-country regulations.
