What is a Chi? Palladium weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The chi (3.75 g) is one tenth of a Vietnamese luong (tael) and the everyday unit for gold in Vietnam. Locally it is written chỉ. One chi equals 3.75 grams, or 0.12057 troy ounces, which at today's palladium spot price works out to — CNY.
Where it is used. SJC bars are sold in 1 chi, 5 chi and 1 luong sizes, and jewellery is quoted in chi with the purity stated as 24K, 18K or 610. The unit is the trading standard in Vietnam.
Pricing conventions. Vietnamese SJC-branded gold has historically traded well above the world price because of import limits, so a local chi quote and a converted world price can differ substantially. Palladium is almost entirely an industrial metal, so a retail quote in this unit is a conversion from the ounce price rather than a rate you will see posted in a shop.
Good to know. One luong equals 10 chi equals 37.5 g, matching the Taiwanese tael.

Buying Palladium in China: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per chi, the price you see here is the international XPD spot price converted into Chinese Yuan. Physical buyers in China pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Shanghai, through the Shanghai Gold Exchange. Buyers there generally watch the Shanghai Gold Benchmark Price in yuan per gram as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Silver, platinum and palladium are taxed as ordinary goods, with platinum popular for bridal jewellery. Palladium is dominated by industrial buyers, so retail coins and bars are scarce and premiums move sharply with supply news. That is why the shop price of palladium in CNY can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same chi of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in China are Shanghai Gold Exchange members, bank gold accumulation plans, Chow Tai Fook and other chains and online platforms. The products most often quoted locally include 50 g and 100 g bars, Panda coins, 999 gold jewellery, SGE Au99.99 contracts.
Local conventions. Mainland buyers price gold per gram and by the metric tael (50 g); the SGE benchmark can trade at a premium or discount to London. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per chi with the live palladium price above, and check the buy-back spread the same dealer offers — that round-trip cost matters more than a small difference in the headline CNY quote.
