Dear er2d2g,er2d2g said:Hi All
I finally managed to understand the procedure for avoiding issues when carrying large quantities of gold through Dubai customs to Canada.
If you have bills for all the gold you are carrying then there is no issue
If you don't have all the bills you need to take all your gold to a gold shop and get it weighed and approx value of the gold as per that day's gold rate and ask them to prepare a stamped list on their letterhead.
Once this is done you need a 1 copy of the list, 2 PP copies and 2 copies of your boarding pass.
On the day of your travel go to the airport police and submit the above to them. They will stamp it on the spot and you should not have any issues when your bags are Xrayed.
I had gone to the airport police yesterday to confirm the procedure. (Terminal 1 they are in area F)
I will be doing the same only in August when I leave for Canada but I hope this will help others who are in a similar situation

Thanks very much, dear friend, for your initiative on the carrying of Jewellery. This will be definitely helpful for all the PR aspirants/holders who will we be carrying gold from Dubai, because over the years (in Dubai-the city of GOLD!) if one has'nt bought/collected Gold then one wasn't 'living' in Dubai in the true sense! 8)
Best Wishes,
