Selling gold without invoice is not easy
Mr. Phan Van Dat (living in Go Vap district) and his wife brought a set of jewelry and a plain ring to sell at a store on Nguyen Van Luong street, Go Vap district, but because the gold was a wedding gift, there was no invoice. After knowing that the gold did not have an invoice, the store owner immediately forced the price down and asked Mr. Dat to sign a paper to leave personal information, proving the origin of the gold purchased.
Meanwhile, Ms. Le Ngoc Quy (living in Thu Duc City) had to go to 2-3 places to sell her gold jewelry because it was a fake brand and there was no receipt. “In the past, I bought it because the design was beautiful and I had no intention of hoarding it, so I didn’t keep the receipt. Now that I need money, I have to sell it, but some gold shop owners don’t take it. The price at the shop is not high, they reminded me to research carefully when buying and selling gold and keep the receipt for future convenience,” Ms. Quy said.
A survey by PV shows that most gold shops in Ho Chi Minh City comply with the regulations that buying and selling gold and jewelry must have full invoices, documents, and clear origin. At the same time, customers are required to bring their ID cards when buying and selling gold. "When customers come to buy goods, we will issue electronic invoices. Conversely, when customers come to sell gold, we also require them to show invoices and ID cards to check information. However, some customers still react because they do not understand this regulation, so there are still many difficulties" - Ms. Khanh Huyen - owner of a gold shop in District 3 said.
Tighten the purchase and sale of gold with invoices
According to Mr. Nguyen Van Dung - Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City Jewelry Association, current regulations stipulate that products without origin will be temporarily seized by the authorities and administrative penalties will be imposed. Therefore, the difficulties of some businesses today are mainly related to documents on the origin and provenance of gold because in the past, when making transactions, invoices were not accepted, so the origin of gold jewelry products could not be proven.
Previously in March, the Prime Minister requested agencies such as the State Bank, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, etc. to strengthen measures to manage the gold market. A representative of the Ho Chi Minh City Market Management Department said that in the past, the unit had inspected 196 violations, temporarily seized 1,657 units of gold jewelry products of unknown origin, origin, and counterfeit brands with a total value of more than 14.2 billion VND.
In addition, the Market Management Department of Ho Chi Minh City also coordinates with the General Department of Market Management to monitor the sale of gold on social network accounts; Actively coordinate with local authorities, especially the police force, the State Bank of Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City branch; Strictly implement professional measures to closely monitor subjects related to gold trading activities that are subject to monitoring activities according to regulations. Thereby, promptly detect, inspect and strictly handle violations under the jurisdiction of the Market Management Department, especially smuggling, goods of unknown origin, and counterfeit goods.
