What is a Tael (Shanghai / Mainland China)? Palladium weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The Shanghai or metric tael is exactly 50 grams, the rounded unit adopted in mainland China after metrication. Locally it is written 市两 (shìliǎng). One tael (shanghai / mainland china) equals 50 grams, or 1.60754 troy ounces, which at today's palladium spot price works out to — EUR.
Where it is used. Shanghai Gold Exchange contracts settle in kilograms, but retail shops and traditional dealers still speak in 市两 of 50 g, and 50 g bars are a popular gift and savings format. The unit is the trading standard in mainland China.
Pricing conventions. Mainland quotes are set against the SGE benchmark in yuan per gram; converting to a dollar price per 50 g tael is the usual way to compare Shanghai with London and see whether China is paying a premium. 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. The metric tael is noticeably heavier than the Hong Kong tael (50 g vs 37.429 g) — the two are not interchangeable, and confusing them overstates a price by a third.

Buying Palladium in European Union: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per tael (shanghai / mainland china), the price you see here is the international XPD spot price converted into Euro. Physical buyers in European Union pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Frankfurt, Vienna and the large euro-area online dealers. Buyers there generally watch the LBMA price converted at the ECB reference rate as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Silver, platinum and palladium carry full VAT in most member states, so their retail premiums are visibly higher than gold. 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 EUR can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same tael (shanghai / mainland china) of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in European Union are bank branches in Germany and Austria, Degussa/Pro Aurum style dealers, online dealers with insured shipping and physically backed ETCs. The products most often quoted locally include 1 oz Vienna Philharmonic, Krugerrand, 100 g bars, CombiBars.
Local conventions. Bars are sold in metric weights (1 g to 1 kg) and jewellery is hallmarked in fineness (585, 750) rather than karats. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per tael (shanghai / mainland china) 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 EUR quote.
