Gold in Oman
Gold in Oman is priced in Omani rials to three decimals (baisa). The karats most in demand are 22K, 21K and 18K.
Why does the gold price change every day?
Gold is priced worldwide in US dollars per troy ounce (31.1035 g) and moves all day with supply and demand. The biggest drivers are the strength of the dollar, interest rates, central-bank buying, and political or economic trouble that sends people to gold as a safe haven.
Its price in Omani rials depends on two things at once: the world price in dollars, and the exchange rate of the local currency. Gold can rise locally while the world price stands still, simply because the currency weakened.
How is the price per gram worked out for each karat?
Price of a gram of pure gold = dollar price per ounce ÷ 31.1035 × the exchange rate. Each karat is then priced by its fineness — how many parts in a thousand are pure gold:
| Karat | Fineness (per 1000) | Pure gold |
|---|---|---|
| 24K | 999 | 99.9% |
| 22K | 916 | 91.6% |
| 21K | 875 | 87.5% |
| 18K | 750 | 75.0% |
Questions we are asked
What is the price of 22K gold per gram today in Oman?
At the world price converted to Omani rials, one gram of 22K is 47.529 OMR right now (last update: Wednesday, 30 September 2026 at 13:00). That is the raw metal price; jewellery in a shop adds the shop’s margin, the making charge and tax.
Why is the price in a shop different from the price shown here?
The number here is the value of the metal alone at the world price. A shop adds its margin, the making charge (the goldsmith’s labour) and any tax, and usually buys used gold back from customers below its selling price.
What is the difference between 24K, 22K, 21K and 18K?
Karat is the share of pure gold in the piece: 24K is 999 parts per thousand, 22K is 916, 21K is 875 and 18K is 750. A gram of 21K holds about 0.875 g of pure gold, which is why it costs less than a gram of 24K.
