FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers for suppliers, buyers, service partners, and strategic enquiries.
Buyers may submit their required quantity for review. Availability, minimum quantities, and commercial feasibility depend on the product, supplier, destination, documentation, and transaction structure.
Purity may be assessed using an appropriate method such as XRF screening, fire assay, or another accepted laboratory process. The method and responsible provider should be agreed for each transaction.
Initial review may require identity and company records, authority to sell, product origin, ownership information, available assay data, weight, location, export information, and supporting commercial documents.
Delivery requirements are considered with suitable logistics providers and may involve packaging, seals, chain-of-custody records, transport documents, customs procedures, delivery notes, and receipt confirmation.
AFSOM Trade may coordinate appropriate laboratories, refineries, or technical providers. The engaged provider remains responsible for its method, report, and result.
Payment and settlement procedures are considered only through documented commercial review and the applicable written agreement. Visitors should not send funds based solely on a website enquiry or informal message.
Depending on risk and transaction requirements, parties may be asked for KYC, ownership, authority, source, source-of-funds, destination, sanctions-screening, and supporting transaction information.
No. An enquiry is preliminary and does not guarantee availability, acceptance, quotation, purchase, sale, payment, delivery, or completion of a transaction.
