Buying silver in Dubai
Dubai prices silver in dirhams per gram for jewellery and per kilo for bars. With the dirham pegged to the dollar, the Dubai rate follows international spot almost exactly.
The prices on this page are the UAE's spot-based rate in AED: there is no separate exchange price for Dubai. Taxes and duties are explained on the silver price in UAE page.
VAT on silver in Dubai
Silver jewellery and silverware carry 5% VAT. Investment silver — 99% purity or more, such as 999 bars and bullion coins — is zero-rated, which makes Dubai one of the cheapest places to buy silver bars.
Where to buy
Dealers in the Gold Souk in Deira and bullion dealers across the city sell bars from 100 g to 1 kg; some banks sell branded bars too. Small bars carry bigger premiums per gram than kilo bars.
