What is a Tael (Hong Kong)? Silver weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The Hong Kong tael (37.429 g, 1.20337 troy ounces) is the contract unit of the Chinese Gold & Silver Exchange Society. Locally it is written 司馬両. One tael (hong kong) equals 37.429 grams, or 1.20337 troy ounces, which at today's silver spot price works out to — EUR.
Where it is used. Hong Kong dealers quote loco-HK gold in taels, and 5-tael cast bars are the classic regional investment format. The unit is the trading standard in Hong Kong.
Pricing conventions. The local tael quote can trade at a small premium or discount to the London ounce price, and that spread is watched as an indicator of mainland Chinese demand. Silver is bulkier per unit of value, so quotes in small traditional units are usually a conversion, while real trade happens in kilogram and 1 000 oz bars.
Good to know. Hong Kong jewellery is also sold in 'chi' and 'fan' — one tenth and one hundredth of a tael respectively.

Buying Silver in European Union: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per tael (hong kong), the price you see here is the international XAG 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. Silver is bulkier and cheaper per unit, so shipping, storage and consumption taxes matter far more to the final price than they do for gold. That is why the shop price of silver in EUR can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same tael (hong kong) 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 (hong kong) with the live silver 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.
