In the film:

> Tezoro stated that Loffy defeated Doflamingo, and Sabo has the Flair-Flair
> Fruit's power. That puts the Gold film after their fight with Doflamingo.

Also

> After they defeated Doflamingo in the anime, they got separated from each
> other and Sanji went to his wedding and all that.

So is the film canon? If it is, when does it take place?

question
one-piece
Is One Piece Film Gold canon or not?


I believe it is not. Quoting from [here](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Non-
Canon):

> Oda had occasionally been involved in non-canon material:
>
> Oda wrote the story for One Piece Film: Strong World and executive produced
> One Piece Film: Z and One Piece Film: Gold.

As you said, based on the time frame alone the movie cannot be placed anywhere
in the manga story line since after Doflamingo was defeated the crew separated
once more (the only possibility where this could happen is "far" into the
future, after the upcoming reverie/Wano arc).

Also it's worth noting that Oda was only the executive producer on the film
(he supervised the art direction), he did not write the story for it.

Generally everything outside the manga is considered non-canon unless Oda
specifically declares something as belonging to the main story.
