How the Qatar gold price is worked out
Gold is priced worldwide in US dollars per troy ounce. The Qatari riyal is pegged at QAR 3.64 to the dollar, so the price in Qatar moves only with the world gold price, not with the currency. One ounce is 31.1 grams, and lower purities are priced by their gold content: 22K is 91.7% gold, 21K is 87.5% and 18K is 75%.
What you pay in a shop
Jewellers add a making charge on top of the gold value, which depends on the design and the shop. Qatar has no VAT, so the price you pay is the gold value plus the making charge. Ask for the weight, purity, gold price and making charge to be shown separately on the invoice.
Which gold is most popular in Qatar
21K and 22K are the purities you will see most in Doha’s jewellery shops. 21K is the traditional choice for Gulf designs, while 22K is popular with buyers from India and Pakistan. 18K is used mostly for diamond jewellery, and 24K is bought mainly as bars and coins for savings.
Where to buy gold in Qatar
The Gold Souq next to Souq Waqif in Doha is the best-known place to buy, with dozens of shops close together so you can compare making charges. Malls across Doha also have jewellers, usually with higher making charges on branded pieces.
Selling old gold
Shops buy old gold at a buyback price below the selling rate in the table, and may deduct a small amount for testing and melting. Bring your QID and the original invoice if you have it, and compare what different shops would pay.
