10. AML Act and restrictions on cash payments
- The amendment to Act No. 253/2008 Coll., on certain measures against the legalization of proceeds from crime and terrorist financing, introduced new binding rules for precious metal dealers. This Act, also known as AML, requires precious metal dealers to verify the identity of clients in transactions exceeding EUR 10,000 (CZK 250,000). This customer identification is intended for archiving purposes only, which we are required to store for 10 years in accordance with the interpretation of the law, and the data obtained in this way is therefore not sent anywhere.
- If you purchase or sell goods from our company that exceed the above-mentioned amount of EUR 10,000 (CZK 250,000), we will ask you, as our customers, for your cooperation. We are required to fill out a form with you, which will include your initials along with information about the origin of your business, and we may also need to make a copy of your ID (ID card or passport).
- A politically exposed person is defined in Act No. 253/2008 Coll., on certain measures against the legalization of proceeds from crime and terrorist financing (§ 4(5)(a)). Under AML laws, a politically exposed person (PEP) is a natural person who holds or has held a prominent public function, including members of the government, senior officials, and close relatives or business partners of such persons.
- We are required to perform this client identification for transactions carried out physically at our branches as well as for sales through our e-shop. If we are unable to perform this identification for any reason, no future orders can be processed. We will be happy to assist you in completing the required forms. After the initial check, you can carry out further transactions without these administrative delays.
