📦 Shipping Process Overview
Preparation
After payment and final verification, your gold is securely packaged in tamper‑evident containers. All export documentation is prepared, including permits, certificates, and customs declarations.
Carrier Pickup
Brinks or Loomis collect the shipment from our Kampala vault. The package is sealed, weighed, and assigned a unique tracking number. You receive the tracking details immediately.
Transit & Delivery
Your gold travels via secure air or road network, with full GPS tracking and insurance. Upon arrival, you or your authorised representative signs for delivery.
🛡️ Packaging, Safety, and Insurance
Secure Packaging
All shipments are packed in discreet, unbranded containers. Bars and nuggets are individually wrapped and cushioned to prevent movement. Dust is sealed in tamper‑evident bags. Packaging meets IATA and TSA requirements for air transport.
Carrier Security
Brinks and Loomis are the global leaders in precious metals logistics. Their armoured vehicles, GPS‑tracked containers, and strict chain‑of‑custody protocols ensure your gold is protected at every stage.
All‑Risk Insurance
Every shipment is insured under a Lloyd’s of London policy covering theft, loss, and damage from the moment it leaves our vault until you accept delivery. The insurance value is based on the current market price.
Real‑Time Tracking
You receive a tracking number and can monitor your shipment’s progress 24/7 via the carrier’s online portal. Milestone updates are provided by email or SMS.

Certified gold shipping requires strict adherence to international laws. Gold Traders International ensures full compliance through:
- Uganda Precious Metals Authority export permits for every shipment.
