Net-gold imports by the world's top gold consumer through the port of Hong Kong rose to 111.647 tonnes in March from 47.931 tonnes in February, according to data emailed to Reuters by the Hong Kong Census and Statistics Department.
China's net-gold imports rose to its best since May 2016. Total gold imports rose to 116.68 tonnes in March from 49.026 tonnes in February.
Both total and net imports in March rose for a second straight month.
Gold has risen over 10 percent so far this year, driven by geopolitical worries.
Gold bullion is often seen as an alternative investment during times of political and financial uncertainty.
Gold prices eased on Tuesday as investor sentiment remained skewed towards riskier assets in the wake of the French election results last weekend, though concerns over tensions on the Korean peninsula limited the safe-haven metal's losses.
