Why the 1 gram rate matters
In the UAE, every gold purchase is priced per gram — even when you're buying a 10-tola bridal set, the shop multiplies by the per-gram rate and adds making charges. The 1 gram price is the atomic unit that everything else derives from.
The rate shown here is the 'base gold value' — the pure metal cost per gram at the purity shown. Jewelry pieces add a making charge on top, which varies by shop, design complexity, and whether it's machine-made or handmade.
Frequently Asked Questions
The live price of 1 gram of gold in Dubai is shown at the top of this page in AED for 24K, 22K, 21K, 18K, and 14K. It is calculated from the Dubai Gold & Jewellery Group's live per-gram fix multiplied by 1 grams.
Dubai has zero import duty and zero-rated VAT on investment-grade gold (99%+ purity). Making charges at the Dubai Gold Souk are also highly competitive. The savings vs other countries grow with weight — the larger the piece, the bigger the absolute saving on tax and duty.
Making charges in Dubai typically range from AED 10 to AED 80 per gram for machine-made pieces, and significantly higher for handmade or designer work. On 1 gram, that's roughly AED 10 to AED 80 depending on the piece and shop.
Investment-grade gold of 99% purity or higher (24K bars and coins) is zero-rated for UAE VAT — so 1 gram of 24K investment gold is VAT-free. Jewelry attracts 5% VAT but only on the making charge, not on the underlying gold value.
