People from all over the world prefer to buy gold in Dubai, often known as the “City of Gold.” This is certainly the case with Indians, who frequently buy yellow metal from Dubai due to the wide variety of designs they have available at reduced and more reasonable pricing than in India.
The low price of yellow metal in this middle-eastern city draws a large number of customers each year. This is a result of the UAE government’s decision to not levy taxes on domestic gold purchases. Additionally, due to their adherence to the bullion’s international free market pricing, UAE gold stores provide their clients with the best global prices.
The gold market in Dubai is strictly regulated and monitored, and there are regulations in place requiring store owners to have hallmark certifications for the gold products they sell.
The low prices are all due to the UAE government, which imposes a minimal-Value Added Tax on jewellery that is among the lowest in the world and even waives it for travellers who produce their passports.
