How to Calculate Gold Value in Dubai — Step by Step

Enter Gold Weight

Type the weight of your gold in the weight field. Choose your preferred unit: grams (most common), tola (1 tola = 11.6638g), troy ounce (1 oz = 31.1035g), or milligrams.

Select Gold Karat

Choose the karat purity: 24K (99.9% pure), 22K (91.67%), 21K (87.5%), 18K (75%), or 14K (58.33%). Check the hallmark stamp on your jewelry if unsure.

Add Making Charges

If calculating jewelry value, enter the making charges percentage quoted by the jeweller. For gold bars or coins, leave this at 0%. Typical range: 8–25%.

Add Wastage (Optional)

Enter the wastage percentage if applicable. Wastage is typically 3–8% and represents gold lost during manufacturing. Only relevant for jewelry.

The calculator instantly shows the base gold value, making charges amount, wastage amount, and final total in AED — helping you verify if the jeweller's price is fair.

Pro Tip — Never Overpay in Dubai's Gold Souk

When buying jewelry in Dubai, always ask the jeweller to show you the weight on a scale separately, then confirm the karat and today's per-gram rate. Enter these into our calculator to get the exact gold value. The difference between that figure and the quoted price is the making charges — which are negotiable, especially for bulk purchases.

Gold Calculator — Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Dubai gold price calculator work?

Our gold calculator works in 4 steps: (1) Enter the weight in grams, tola, ounce, or milligrams. (2) Select the karat purity (24K, 22K, 21K, 18K, or 14K). (3) Optionally add making charges percentage (typically 8–25% for jewelry). (4) Optionally add wastage percentage (typically 3–8%). The calculator shows the exact gold value, making charges, and total price in AED using today's live Dubai gold rates.

What are making charges in gold jewelry in Dubai?

Making charges are the fee charged by jewellers for crafting gold jewelry. In Dubai's Gold Souk, making charges typically range from 5% to 15% for machine-made pieces and 15–50%+ for handcrafted or designer jewelry. Unlike India, making charges in Dubai are often negotiable. Always ask for the making charges separately and use our calculator to verify if the total price is fair.

What is wastage in gold jewelry?

Wastage is the small amount of gold lost during the manufacturing process. Jewellers typically charge 3% to 8% wastage on the gold weight. For machine-made pieces, 0–3% is reasonable. Higher wastage claims (8%+) should be questioned. Our calculator lets you see exactly how much wastage adds to your final price.

How do I convert tola to grams for gold calculation?

1 tola = 11.6638 grams. To convert tola to grams, multiply by 11.6638. Example: 5 tola = 58.319 grams. Our calculator handles this automatically when you select "Tola" as the weight unit. You can also convert between grams, tola, ounces, and milligrams instantly.

Which gold rates does this calculator use?

The calculator uses today's official gold rates for Dubai, sourced from the Dubai Gold & Jewellery Group (DGJG) and updated daily each morning. The rates reflect the current market price for each karat in UAE Dirhams per gram — the same rates you'll find in Dubai's Gold Souk.

How do I verify if a Dubai jeweller is charging the correct price?

Ask the jeweller: (1) The exact weight of the gold piece in grams, (2) The karat (24K/22K/21K/18K), (3) Today's gold rate per gram, (4) The making charges percentage. Then enter these values into our calculator. The total displayed should match the jeweller's quote. If there's a significant difference, ask the jeweller to explain.

Is 22K or 24K gold better for investment in Dubai?

24K gold (99.9% pure) is better for investment as it contains the maximum gold content. However, 24K gold is too soft for everyday jewelry. For investment, consider 24K gold bars or coins. For jewelry, 22K (91.67% pure) is the most popular in Dubai as it's strong enough for intricate designs while still having high gold content.
