Here are five quick tips for buying and investing silver in Malaysia:
Tips #1 – Buy Silver Bars
Silver bars are imported under HS-code 7106. Silver coins are under HS-code 7118. HS-code 7118 says, “Coin (other than gold coin), not being legal tender, is subject to import duty of 5% and sale tax of 10%”.
Buy silver bars and skip the 15% import tax premium.
Tips #2 – Go Bigger Oz
Buy 1 x 10 oz bar instead of 10 x 1 oz bar. Buy 1 x 100 oz instead of 10 x 10 oz. The bigger oz you buy, the bigger saving you get on minting. Scottsdale Silver’s 10 oz and 100 oz comes with a cool stacking feature.
When it comes to precious metal investment in coins format, it is recommended that we invest in bullion coins. Bullion coin is a coin struck from gold, silver, platinum or palladium. Generally, investment grade bullion coins have purity of not less than 0.9 fineness. For silver, it is recommended to buy fineness with triple 9 (0.999) or more.
Although bullion coins usually have legal tender in their country of origin, its legal tender value are ignorable as it is valued lower than the actual metal price. For instance, 1 oz of American Eagle silver has a legal tender of USD$ 1 value. Would you like to trade it with my RM3.00?
There are plenty of different bullion coins in the market. In this post, we will discuss the top five favourites for Malaysia.
