Michigan Sales Tax on Gold & Silver Bullion / Coins
The State of Michigan requires the collection of sales taxes on certain products sold by BGASC and delivered to a Michigan address. These taxes must be collected on (1) copper products; (2) palladium products; (3) any bullion products made of gold, silver, or platinum if their purity is less than 900 parts per 1,000; (4) accessory items; and (5) processed items. All other products sold by BGASC are exempt from these taxes.
The following definitions apply to products on which taxes must be collected in Michigan:
- Accessory Items. Items such as holders, tubes, coin flips, and apparel.
- Processed Items. Precious metals that have been processed by third parties into items that are valued on more than their precious metal content, such as statues or colorized coins.
Sales taxes in Michigan are calculated at checkout on the BGASC website based on (1) the taxability of products sold by BGASC in Michigan set forth above, and (2) the specific tax rates established by the taxing jurisdiction of the delivery address in Michigan.
