Convert to Kuwaiti dinars at today's reference exchange rate: KWD 1,234 per ounce.
Divide by 31.1035 grams in a troy ounce: KWD 39.69 per gram of pure (24K) gold.
Multiply by purity: 22K is 22 ÷ 24 = 0.9167, so 22K is KWD 36.38 per gram.
For a tola, multiply the gram price by 11.6638: 24K is KWD 463 per tola.
The same steps give every cell in the table. Because 24K is valued here as 100% gold, real 24K bars (999.9) and 22K jewellery can be a fraction lower in pure gold content than this calculation assumes.
How the dinar affects the gold price
The Kuwaiti dinar is linked to an undisclosed basket of currencies in which the US dollar has the largest weight. That keeps the dinar fairly stable against the dollar, so most daily moves in the KWD gold price come from gold itself, with small extra moves from the exchange rate.
The dinar is one of the world's highest-value currencies, so a gram of 24K gold costs only a few dozen dinars. That is why prices here are shown to two decimals per gram.
Making charges and buying gold in Kuwait
Jewellers in Kuwait City, including Souq Al-Mubarakiya and the malls, quote a gram rate and add a making charge that depends on the design; this part is usually negotiable.
Kuwait has not introduced VAT at the time of writing. Rules can change, so check at the time you buy, and always ask for the karat stamp and a receipt showing weight and purity.
