How to buy gold from a licensed Uganda dealer

Step-by-step guide for institutional and serious private buyers: KYC, assay, bar formats, FOB Kampala, CIF Dubai, and Gold Savings for smaller physical accumulation.

What you are buying

Diamond Capital Africa coordinates fire-assay verified fine gold supply from Kampala. Typical institutional formats include 10 oz, 1 kg, and 12.5 kg where available, with certificates. This is physical bullion supply, not mining shares or paper gold. DCA is also developing a proposed modern refinery and assay laboratory.

Who should buy this way

Institutional importers, Middle East and European traders, family offices, and professional bullion buyers who need documentation and chain of custody.

Artisanal sellers who want to sell doré to us use the Kampala or Arua collection centres. Licensed suppliers with larger lots can offer metal to DCA for purchase. That is a different process from buying refined bars.

The practical steps

1. Contact us with intended volume, destination country, and delivery preference (FOB Kampala, CIF Dubai, or escorted insured delivery).

2. Complete KYC: company details and proof of funds suited to the order. We do the same commercial diligence in reverse.

3. Receive a quote: live spot reference plus premium and logistics where applicable.

4. Confirm bar formats, settlement currency, and timeline.

5. We allocate approved inventory, complete assay documentation, and prepare export documents.

6. Delivery and settlement on the agreed Incoterms. Release of metal follows the commercial contract, not blind prepayment to a stranger.

Documents and compliance buyers should expect

Assay certificates, serial numbers where applicable, export permits, customs documentation, and OECD-aligned traceability records. European buyers should expect paperwork that supports due diligence reviews; Dubai buyers commonly use CIF or FOB structures around the re-export hub.

We do not replace your own counsel or bank compliance. We supply product and documentation from a licensed Uganda operation so your side can complete legitimate import.

Next step

Diamond Capital Africa is a licensed gold dealer and exporter in Kampala, developing a proposed refinery. Serious buyers should follow the published procedure, not cold social-media shortcuts.
