Frequently asked questions
What is the price of 21K gold today in Saudi Arabia?
One gram of 21K gold in Saudi Arabia sells for 409.25 Saudi riyals today, and shops buy it back at 405.25 Saudi riyals. These prices are for the metal only and exclude the making charge.
Why is the buy price lower than the sell price?
The gap between the two is the jeweler's margin for handling, refining and resale risk. When you sell gold, the shop pays the buy price. When you buy, you pay the sell price plus the making charge.
Do these prices include the making charge?
No. The making charge (workmanship) is added per gram or per piece and depends on the design and the shop. Use our gold calculator to add it.
What is the difference between 24K, 21K and 18K gold?
The karat measures purity out of 24. 24K is 99.9% gold, 21K is 87.5% and 18K is 75%. Lower karats are harder and cheaper per gram.
How much does the gold pound weigh?
The gold pound (gold guinea) weighs 8 grams of 21K gold, so its price is about eight times the 21K gram price plus a small making charge.
How many grams are in an ounce of gold?
A troy ounce is 31.1035 grams. The international price of gold is quoted per troy ounce in US dollars.
How often are prices updated?
Prices refresh automatically every minute while markets are open. If a feed is delayed, the page says so and shows the last known prices.
How gold is priced in Saudi Arabia
Jewelers in Saudi Arabia set their karat prices from the international gold price in US dollars, converted into Saudi riyals and adjusted for local supply and demand. The sell price is what you pay a shop for one gram of gold before the making charge. The buy price is what the shop pays you for your gold.
The SAR is pegged to the US dollar at 3.75 per dollar, so gold prices in Saudi Arabia move almost exactly with the global dollar price.
Gold in Saudi Arabia follows the international spot price, quoted in US dollars per troy ounce (31.1035 g). We convert it into Saudi riyals at today's exchange rate and divide it by karat purity: 24K is 99.9% gold, 22K is 91.6%, 21K is 87.5% and 18K is 75%. Shop prices also add making charges, taxes and the dealer's margin.

About these prices
Prices are indicative and are meant to help you know the market before you visit a shop. For Arab markets we follow the karat prices posted by local jewelers. For other countries we calculate prices from the international spot price and live exchange rates. Shops add the making charge and may differ slightly from these figures.
