What moves the Dubai gold rate?
International spot price: Dubai tracks the global gold price in US dollars, converted at the fixed AED peg (3.6725).
US dollar strength: a stronger dollar usually pushes the dollar gold price down, and vice versa.
Festival & wedding demand: Diwali, Eid and wedding season buying can widen retail premiums over the raw rate.
Before you buy in Dubai
Ask for the per-gram rate of the day and the making charge separately — making is negotiable, especially in Deira Gold Souk.
Confirm the price includes 5% VAT (tourists can claim a VAT refund at the airport).
For 22K jewellery, today's raw gold value is AED 460.50/gram — anything far above that is making charge and margin.
