About this data

Each row shows the last recorded rate of the day (Dubai time). We record our own data from the international spot price, so the table grows every day. You can also get the latest 30 days as JSON from /wp-json/dhahab/v1/rates.

How to read this table

Each row is one day in Dubai time, showing the last rate we recorded that day.
Rates are AED per gram, before making charges and VAT.
The last column is the international spot price in US dollars per ounce at the same moment.
Rows marked * are estimated retail rates.

Why gold prices change from day to day

The Dubai rate follows the international gold price, which moves with the US dollar, interest-rate expectations, central bank buying and world events. Because the dirham is pegged to the dollar, there is no currency effect between USD and AED, so daily changes in the Dubai rate mirror the global market.

Using price history

History helps you see whether today’s rate is high or low compared with recent weeks, and check the rate on the day of a past purchase. It does not predict future prices. We publish the data openly so you can check it.

Gold rate history questions

How far back does the history go?

We started recording on our launch date and add a new row every day, so the table grows over time.

Is this the official Dubai gold rate history?

No. These are our estimated Dubai retail rates based on the international spot price, labelled with *. Days with a published rate entered are not marked.

What was the gold rate yesterday in Dubai?

See the second row of the table above. The top row is today.

Can I download the data?

Yes. The latest 30 days are available as JSON at /wp-json/dhahab/v1/rates. Please link back if you use it.

Why do some days show the same price?

The international market is closed at weekends, so Saturday and Sunday usually repeat Friday’s last price.
