Checking the gold price today in Saudi Arabia starts with the live spot rate. This page explains how to read the live price on ToolZana, what the karat table means, and why a shop price can differ from the spot price.
How to Read the Live Saudi Gold Price
Open the gold price in Saudi Arabia page to see the current price per gram in Saudi riyals for 24K, 22K, 21K, 18K and 14K, plus the price per ounce, per tola and per kilogram. The page shows the daily change and the time the price was last updated, and refreshes about every minute.
Spot Price and Shop Price
The live price is the raw spot rate before dealer commission and making charges. Shops in Saudi Arabia commonly sell 21K and 22K jewellery, so the shop price adds making charges and any tax to the spot value of the metal. Use the gold value calculator to estimate the metal value of a piece from its weight and karat before you compare shop prices.
