Leaving Singapore with gold jewellery
Personal-wear gold jewellery is generally free to export from Singapore at reasonable personal-use quantities. High-value personal jewellery (typically above USD 10,000 equivalent) should be declared on Cash Movement Report at customs since jewellery counts toward cash-equivalent thresholds in some jurisdictions. Gold bullion, bars, and coins face different treatment: they may require an advance export authorisation from the central bank or securities regulator for commercial quantities. Antique jewellery over the applicable cultural-property age threshold (typically 100 years) may require an export permit from the cultural-affairs authority.
Personal-wear gold jewellery clears as routine. Bulk imports above the destination's threshold attract duty + VAT; cash-declaration rules may apply on high-value bullion.
