Raw gold tracks a single global price; differences between countries come from the local currency, VAT and making charges: Saudi Arabia levies 15% VAT on jewelry while Kuwait and Qatar have none, and investment bullion of 99%+ purity is exempt almost everywhere. Tap any country for its full per-karat prices.

Gold Price FAQ

Why do gold prices differ between Arab countries?

Raw gold has one global price; the visible difference is each country's currency and its dollar exchange rate. Final shop prices also reflect VAT (15% in Saudi Arabia, 5% in UAE and Oman, 10% in Bahrain, 14% in Egypt, none in Kuwait and Qatar) and local making-charge levels.

Which country is cheapest for buying gold?

For investment bullion of 99%+ purity the difference is negligible since it is VAT-exempt across most of the region. For jewelry, Kuwait and Qatar are the most tax-friendly (no VAT), and the real differentiator remains the negotiable making charge in each market.

Are these prices updated automatically?

Yes — prices are fetched from global gold markets every 5 minutes and shown in each country's currency using live exchange rates.
