Ask the research
Canada-UK trade runs under the UK-Canada Trade Continuity Agreement (in force 1 Apr 2021, incorporating CETA) and, since 15 Dec 2024, the CPTPP (UK accession), but neither changes anything for gold: Canada's tariff on 7108 is Free under every column and the UK third-country duty on 7108 12 00 00 is 0.00%; Canadian export reporting (REGR, CAD 2,000+) and UK VAT rules apply as for any partner. The UK is Canada's largest gold destination (2024: about 216-249 t, US$16.6-18.8bn depending on the reporter).

Where practice departs from the law
What credible sources show happening that the law does not provide for.
UK imports from Canada (HS 7108) were about 13% above Canada's HS 710812 exports to the UK in 2024; part may be semi-manufactured gold outside 710812. UK imports from Canada almost tripled from 2023 to 2024.
Figures: UK US$18,785.8m vs CA US$16,567.4m (2024)
