Gold Hallmarking System

Gold hallmarking is a certification process that ensures the purity and authenticity of gold products. It involves stamping gold items with a mark indicating their purity, typically in terms of karats (e.g., 22K, 18K) or fineness (e.g., 916, 999). This process protects consumers by guaranteeing they receive high-quality, genuine gold, free from adulteration. Hallmarking is mandatory in many countries to prevent fraud and uphold industry standards. The hallmark not only certifies purity but also assures the buyer of the gold’s value, promoting transparency and building trust in the jewelry market and other gold products.
