What Documents Are Required to Sell Gold in India?

Selling gold in India requires KYC (Know Your Customer) compliance. Here's what you need.

Required Documents

You need photo ID and address proof. The Aadhaar card is preferred because it serves both purposes in a single document. Alternatively, you can use your passport for fast-track verification.

Why KYC Matters

KYC protects you and the buyer. It prevents money laundering and ensures your transaction is recorded properly. All licensed gold buyers in India must complete KYC before payment.
