Where to buy gold in Sharjah
Sharjah's gold shopping centres on two areas: the Central Souq, the landmark Blue Souk by Khalid Lagoon, whose ground floor is lined with jewellers, and the Rolla area, home to many Indian jewellers. Plenty of Sharjah and northern-emirates residents buy here rather than drive into Dubai, and the gold rate is exactly the same.

Comparable to Dubai, and negotiable at independent shops. Branded chains keep the same fixed charges and offers as their Dubai branches.
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.
- 4At the Central Souq, compare a few shops on the ground floor before buying: many sell similar designs.
- 5If you are coming from Dubai, check the traffic: the drive can take far longer than the shopping.
Frequently asked questions
The gold rate is the same across the UAE, so a gram of 22K costs the same in both. Any difference is in the making charge, which varies by shop rather than by emirate.
The main places are the Central Souq (Blue Souk) on Khalid Lagoon, with jewellers on the ground floor, and the Rolla area in the old city centre, which has many Indian jewellers.
Shops generally open from mid-morning until about 10pm, some with an afternoon break and shorter Friday hours. Each shop sets its own hours.
The same UAE rules apply: investment gold is zero-rated, and on jewellery the 5% VAT applies to the making charge, not the gold value.
