About the AED gold price

These figures track spot gold (XAUUSD) — the international benchmark — converted into UAE Dirham. Spot is the wholesale price for pure (24-carat) gold; a jeweller's retail rate adds making charges, GST or VAT, and a margin, so a shop price is normally higher than the spot figures shown here.

One tola equals 11.6638 grams and one troy ounce equals 31.1035 grams. To get 22-carat (916) gold, multiply the 24-carat price by roughly 0.916.
