Questions & Answers

Today's gold rate in Dubai is 530.5 AED per gram for 24K gold, 491.75 AED for 22K, 472 AED for 21K, and 404.25 AED for 18K. Check our live price table above for the most current rates, updated regularly throughout the day.
24K gold is considered the best option for investment as it is 99.9% pure gold with the highest resale value. Since investment gold is valued by its gold content alone, the higher purity of 24K means better returns. However, 22K gold is the most popular choice for jewelry in the UAE, offering a good balance between purity and durability.
24K gold is 99.9% pure gold, making it the purest form available. It has a brighter yellow color but is softer and more prone to scratching. 22K gold contains 91.7% gold mixed with other metals like copper and silver for added durability, making it ideal for jewelry that is worn daily. In terms of price, 24K is always more expensive per gram than 22K.
There is no guaranteed "best time" to buy gold, as prices fluctuate with global markets. However, many experienced buyers prefer to purchase during international price dips, during the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF), or during special events when jewelers offer reduced making charges. Monitoring the gold rate regularly on our site will help you spot favorable buying opportunities.
The gold price per gram in UAE varies by karat. Our rate table shows the exact per-gram price for each karat type (24K, 22K, 21K, 18K, 14K) in AED. To calculate the cost of a gold piece, multiply the per-gram rate by the weight in grams, then add the making charges that vary by store and design complexity.
No, the gold price shown on our website is for raw gold only. When you buy gold jewelry from a shop, an additional "making charge" (also called craftsmanship fee) is added, which covers the cost of design and labor. Making charges vary between AED 5 to AED 100+ per gram depending on the complexity of the design and the store.
Dubai is known as the "City of Gold" and offers some of the most competitive gold prices globally due to the UAE's zero tax on gold bullion, lower import duties, high competition among hundreds of gold shops, and large-scale trading volumes. This combination means you can often buy gold in Dubai at prices lower than in India, UK, and many other countries.
