Gold Rate Today in UAE – Dubai, 24K & 22K per Gram

Sources reviewed: 18 October 2026. The gold quote above has its own observation date.

Read gold prices in UAE dirhams alongside purity, weight, making charges and the conditions of a Dubai or other emirate shop quotation.

Compare the Gold Weight Before Comparing the Offer

An AED gold quotation can refer to the metal value per gram, a finished jewellery item or a specific bullion product. Establish which price the seller is showing before comparing it with the dashboard. For a chain or bangle, identify the purity and net gold weight. For a bar, read the declared fineness, weight, brand and package details.

This page converts the USD gold reference into UAE dirhams with a separately dated daily exchange-rate input. The currency observation does not refresh each time gold moves. It is separate from a retailer’s own gold-rate board and from the complete price of an item in a Dubai souk or shopping mall. The Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and other local rows share the same underlying reference. Their purpose is to make a local quotation easier to compare without inventing separate city prices.

Making Charges, Tax and the Complete AED Total

Ask for metal value, making charges, stone value and tax to be understandable in the written offer. If one seller quotes making charges per gram and another offers a percentage discount, reduce both offers to a complete payable total for the same item specifications. A large discount is not informative until the amount to which it applies is clear.

The Federal Tax Authority’s VAT guidance identifies certain investment-grade precious metals among zero-rated supplies. That category does not make every jewellery purchase automatically tax-free. Use the invoice’s product classification and current FTA guidance for the actual transaction, including any distinct service charges.

Buying as a Visitor

If you plan to seek a tourist VAT refund, check the retailer’s participation and product eligibility before paying. The FTA tourist-refund procedure explains the documentation and export-validation process. Preserve the purchase record and ensure the goods remain available for any required inspection before checked baggage is handed over. A potential refund should be calculated separately from the price you initially pay.

For purchases intended to leave the UAE, also check your destination’s declaration and import requirements. A favourable AED shop price does not by itself establish the final landed cost. Match currency conversion, purity, weight and all applicable charges before comparing it with a quote from another country.

Product Testing and Accreditation

Dubai Municipality describes precious-metal purity-testing services, while DMCC’s gold guidance discusses the UAE’s bullion ecosystem and standards. A test result or refinery accreditation concerns a defined item, process or organisation. It should not be interpreted as a government endorsement of an unrelated gold-price website or a guarantee of a future resale price.

Use the spot versus retail-price guide to separate the AED reference from a finished product. The Pakistan gold page explains the different local-reference basis used there.
