Why Dubai Gold Souk Quotes in Grams, Not Tolas
Dubai follows the international standard of pricing gold per gram in AED, aligned with global gold markets. The tola unit is traditional in South Asia but is not used in official UAE gold pricing. This is why:
- The Dubai Gold Souk displays price boards in AED per gram by karat
- The Dubai Gold & Jewellery Group (DGJG) publishes daily AED/gram rates
- International gold spot prices are quoted in USD per troy ounce
When shopping at the Gold Souk, tell the jeweller the weight you want in grams. If you want approximately 1 tola, ask for 11.6 or 11.7 grams.
