Loading live prices…
Dubai prices here are worked out from the live international gold price (the UAE dirham is fixed at 3.6725 per US dollar). Shops in Dubai publish their own daily retail rates, which can be slightly different. Prices update every minute.
Is gold cheaper in Dubai than in Pakistan?
Usually yes, by a small margin, because Pakistan’s rate carries a premium over the international price (see the Pakistan premium tracker). But the gold price is only part of the cost. In Dubai you also pay making charges on jewellery and 5% VAT, which tourists can partly reclaim at the airport. Bringing gold into Pakistan can also attract customs duty.
How much gold can you bring from Dubai to Pakistan?
Reports from the Gulf press say passengers can bring a small amount of gold, about 10 grams, into Pakistan without duty, and that duty applies above that. Rules change, so check the latest baggage rules with Pakistan Customs (FBR) before you travel, keep your purchase receipt, and declare gold above the allowance on arrival.
