What GoldBod Licensing Means
Only licensed buyers can legally purchase gold from small-scale miners in Ghana. Selling to an unlicensed buyer puts a miner's own licence at risk and pushes gold out of the formal economy.
Home · GoldBod Licensed Buyer
The Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) is the sole regulator of gold purchases and exports in Ghana under ACT 1140. Smartjoe Limited operates with a current GoldBod Tier 2 buyer licence, in full alignment with national policy.
Only licensed buyers can legally purchase gold from small-scale miners in Ghana. Selling to an unlicensed buyer puts a miner's own licence at risk and pushes gold out of the formal economy.
We file monthly returns with GoldBod, run KYC/CDD/AML screening on every counterparty, and follow Bank of Ghana and Financial Intelligence Centre directives without exception.
By formalising purchases at source, we help redirect Ghanaian gold into the national reserve programme rather than the informal cross-border market.
Through our Afrimex Gold partnership, exports are processed against OECD Due Diligence Guidance and LBMA responsible sourcing standards.
