The International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) issued a consolidated circular on 2 January 2026 streamlining and liberalising the framework for import of gold and silver through the India International Bullion Exchange (IIBX). Based on stakeholder feedback, eligibility has been expanded to include SEZ units with jewellery exports and Advance Authorisation holders, while clarifying that import of silver bars under ITC(HS) 71069221 does not require notification as a Qualified Jeweller. The circular consolidates earlier directions and prescribes detailed eligibility criteria, net worth thresholds (with relaxed norms for SEZ units), turnover requirements, and continuous compliance obligations for Qualified Jewellers. It also sets out procedures for India–UAE CEPA TRQ holders to import UAE Good Delivery gold through IIBX, including onboarding, validity of notification, and coordination with DGFT and RBI regulations. Robust operational safeguards are mandated covering advance remittances, purchase and extinguishment of Bullion Depository Receipts, AML/CFT compliance, surveillance, and reporting to ensure transparency and market integrity.
