24K Gold Price Chart: One Year in AED per Gram
The chart converts one year of daily gold futures closes into the Dubai 24K rate in AED per gram at the fixed 3.6725 peg, so the line is the international gold price expressed in the unit a Dubai buyer pays, with the high, low, and one-year change stated in the caption; the history page extends the series to ten years.
Bar and Coin Price Calculator: Metal Rate Plus Dealer Premium
The calculator prices a 24K purchase the way a bullion dealer does: weight times the metal rate, plus a premium entered in dirhams per gram that stands in for the dealer's margin, with the VAT box left unticked for investment-grade bars and ticked for 24K jewellery, so the two cases can be compared on one screen.
Premiums vary with bar size: small bars and coins carry a higher percentage over spot than 100-gram or kilo bars. The gold bar price page lists the size ladder.
What 24K Gold Means and Where It Is Sold in Dubai
24K gold is 99.9% or 99.99% pure metal, stamped 999 or 999.9, and is the form gold takes as an investment: cast and minted bars from refiners accredited under the UAE Good Delivery standard (the national scheme that replaced DMCC's Dubai Good Delivery in 2021), coins, and the 24K jewellery sold mainly to Chinese and Gulf customers. Bullion dealers in Deira, in the Gold and Diamond Park, and at the DMCC free zone sell bars at the metal rate plus a premium, and the UAE zero-rates VAT on gold of 99% purity or higher, which is why a bar bought in Dubai costs close to the international spot value. Softness is the trade-off: pure gold bends and scratches, so daily-wear jewellery is made in 22K, 21K, or 18K instead. The investing guide compares bars with digital gold and ETFs, and bars carried to India are dutiable from the first gram, as the customs guide explains.
How the 24K Rate Is Derived From the Spot Price
The 24K rate per gram equals the spot price in US dollars per troy ounce divided by 31.1035 grams, multiplied by the 3.6725 peg, multiplied by 0.999 for the fineness. Worked example for 2026-09-04: $4,432.60 ÷ 31.1035 × 3.6725 × 0.999 = AED 522.85 per gram. A dealer's buy price for a recognised bar sits a little below this figure and the sell price a little above it; the spread between the two is the cost of owning physical metal, which is why larger bars with narrower spreads suit investors and small bars suit gifts.
24K Gold Rate FAQ
What is the 24K gold rate in Dubai today?
The reference 24K gold rate in Dubai on 2026-09-04 is AED 522.85 per gram, AED 5,229 per 10 grams, AED 6,098.41 per tola, and AED 16,262 per troy ounce, computed from the $4,432.60 per ounce spot price at the 3.6725 peg. Bullion dealers add a premium of roughly 1% to 5% depending on bar size.
What is the difference between 24K, 999 and 999.9 gold?
24K is the purity class; 999 and 999.9 are the fineness stamps. A 999 bar is 99.9% gold and a 999.9 bar is 99.99% gold. Investment bars from UAE Good Delivery accredited refiners such as Emirates Gold and Al Etihad Gold are typically 999.9, while 24K jewellery and some coins are 999. The price difference between the two is a fraction of a percent of metal value.
Is 24K gold in Dubai sold without VAT?
Investment-grade gold of 99% purity or higher is zero-rated under UAE VAT law, so bars and coins that meet the purity test are sold without the 5% VAT. 24K jewellery is a retail jewellery sale and carries 5% VAT on the invoice. Import duty on gold bullion into the UAE is 0%.
Can I buy 24K gold jewellery in Dubai?
Yes. Chinese-style 24K jewellery and some Gulf pieces are made in 999 gold, but 24K is soft and scratches easily, which is why most chains and bangles are 22K or 21K. 24K jewellery carries the higher metal rate plus a making charge and 5% VAT, so the mark-up over the bar price is larger than for a plain bar.
How much is one tola of 24K gold in Dubai?
One tola is 11.6638 grams, so one tola of 24K gold in Dubai on 2026-09-04 is AED 6,098.41 of metal value, about $1,661. Pakistani buyers compare this figure with the Karachi Sarafa rate per tola.
Does the 24K rate on this page match the Dubai Gold Souk board?
The metal rate matches within rounding because both come from the same international spot price. Shop boards display the rate to the quarter dirham and update through the day, so a small difference between this page, which updates daily, and a board at a given hour reflects intraday movement, not a different pricing basis.
