Hours & directions on Google Maps →Making charges
Branded chains mostly use fixed or percentage making charges with seasonal offers. Independent shops will often negotiate, especially on simple pieces.
Before you buy
- 1Check today's rate on this page before you go, so you know the gold value of any piece you are quoted.
- 2Ask the shop to weigh the piece in front of you and to itemise the invoice: gold value, making charge, and 5% VAT on the making charge only.
- 3Look for the purity stamp: 750 for 18K, 875 for 21K, 916 for 22K, 999 for 24K.
- 4For 18K, check the stamp says 750 and ask whether the price includes any stones by weight.
- 5Ask whether old gold can be exchanged against the new piece, and how the old gold is valued.
Frequently asked questions
For everyday jewellery, yes: it has branded chains and independent jewellers, and is convenient for nearby residents. For the widest choice and the most negotiation, the Deira Gold Souk is a short metro ride away.
The gold rate is identical across Dubai. Making charges at independent shops can be similar to the souk, while branded chains tend to be fixed. Compare the itemised making charge, not the total.
ADCB station on the Red Line is the closest to most of Karama's shops.
Many jewellers offer old-gold exchange. They value your gold at their buying rate, which is below the selling rate, and deduct any stones. Ask for the weight, purity and rate used in writing.
