Is it possible to travel to another country, buy gold there and then bring it into your country without huge risk of getting caught smuggling?
And if so, what European countries has low VAT rates for PMs?

Merchant marine guy here, we do it most of the time. We just place it in the marine declarations and we're done

There's no VAT on gold in the EU.
Silver is a different matter, there are different tax rates depending on the country. But even then, since there is free movement of goods, you can safely drive to another country with low VAT, buy your silver there, and then drive back without breaking any laws. But rather than do that, you can simply find a store online and order it directly to your house.
What country do you live in?

I live in Norway. This thread is just incase I will buy 100g worth of gold eventually. I only know of SilverGoldBull.com which actually sell such online and the importation taxes amounts to almost 2k. I'd rather buy it close to spot price without having to deal with VAT

Norway I see. Since you are actually not in the EU, I don't know if you are required to report imported gold in customs, because I'd imagine it depends on the trading deals your government has with the EU.
However, I just checked and it seems like there is VAT (mva) on investment gold bars, but not on gold coins in Norway. So if you want to buy gold, just find a Norwegian store and order it from there to get closest to spot price.

I want to buy silver and have it delivered to Austria since we have a 20% VAT on it, anyone know any stores that do that without charging VAT?

Estonia 0% VAT on silver. However they can not deliver directly, you have to hire a 3rd party transport or pick it up yourself.
Example: europeanmint.com
Sample price: €16.00 for 1 oz maple leaf
Germany 7% VAT on silver. Delivers directly to your home with guarantees, insurances and reliable retailers.
Example: auragentum.de
Sample price: €16.65 for 1 oz maple leaf
