Gold Rate in Singapore Today: 22K & 24K Per Gram

This guide compares today’s per-gram rates from Mustafa Centre and Joyalukkas, explains what the purity numbers actually mean, and shows where the best deals really are.

How much is 1 gram of gold in Singapore today?
Current 24K gold rate per gram
- Joyalukkas 24KT: SGD 176.30 (Joyalukkas Singapore)
- Mustafa 24K‑999 bar: ~SGD 200.60/g (implied from 100g price of SGD 20,060, Mustafa official site)
- GoodReturns reports 24K at SGD 187.20 (GoodReturns)
- Singapore Current reported Mustafa 24K at SGD 185.80 (Singapore Current)
The spot price of gold sits around USD 2,400 per ounce, but retail rates include premiums for manufacturing, import duty, and profit margins. The gap between spot and retail can be SGD 20‑30 per gram – something to keep in mind if you’re comparing investment bars versus jewellery.
How to interpret the spot vs retail price
- Spot price: international benchmark for raw gold (24K) – not available to individual buyers
- Retail price: what you actually pay at a jeweller – includes premium, GST (exempt for investment‑grade gold), and making charges
- Singapore exempts GST on 9999 investment bars (Singapore Press)
A buyer looking for pure investment bullion should target 24K bars from a retailer that lists a per‑gram price close to the international spot plus a small premium. Jewellery buyers will see higher per-gram rates because of design and workmanship costs.
The takeaway: for pure investment, chase the 24K bar price; for wearable gold, accept the higher per-gram cost as the price of design and craftsmanship.
How much is 1 gram of 22 carat gold in Singapore today?
Current 22K gold rate per gram
- Joyalukkas 22KT: SGD 161.70 (Joyalukkas Singapore)
- Mustafa 22K‑916 jewellery: SGD 184.60 (Mustafa official site)
- GoodReturns reports 22K at SGD 170.70 (GoodReturns)
- Singapore Report recorded Joyalukkas 22K at SGD 165.50 on 11 July 2026 (Singapore Report)
The spread between Joyalukkas and Mustafa for 22K jewellery is roughly SGD 23 per gram – a significant gap that highlights why comparison shopping matters.
22K vs 24K gold pricing difference
- 22K contains 91.6% pure gold; 24K is 99.9% pure. The price difference reflects the lower gold content and higher alloy proportion.
- Typically, 22K jewellery costs 8‑10% less than 24K per gram of the same weight.
In Singapore, 22K (916) is the most common purity for wedding jewellery and daily‑wear pieces. Buyers who understand the per‑gram difference can avoid overpaying for a purity they don’t need.
The pattern: 22K buyers should compare per-gram rates between Joyalukkas and Mustafa before stepping into a store — the gap is wider than most expect.
What is the 916 and 999 gold price today in Singapore?
916 gold (22K) rate
- Mustafa 22K‑916 jewellery: SGD 184.60/g (Mustafa official site)
- Joyalukkas 22KT: SGD 161.70/g (Joyalukkas Singapore)

- Joyalukkas 24KT: SGD 176.30/g (Joyalukkas Singapore)
- Singapore Press reports 24K at SGD 192.94/g (Singapore Press)
Difference in purity and price
- 999 (24K) is 99.9% pure gold; 916 (22K) is 91.6% pure – the rest is alloy metals for durability.
- Price difference: 999 commands a premium of roughly SGD 15‑25 per gram over 916, depending on the retailer.
The pattern is clear: 999 is always more expensive per gram, but the premium varies by outlet. At Joyalukkas the gap is SGD 14.60; at Mustafa it’s SGD 16.00 (based on jewellery vs bar pricing).
How much is 100 grams of gold in Singapore?

Is Singapore gold cheap compared to other countries?
Which country has the cheapest gold?
- Countries with no import duty (e.g., UAE, Hong Kong) often have lower retail premiums (GoodReturns)
- Singapore does not charge GST on investment‑grade gold (9999), which reduces total cost for serious buyers (Singapore Press)
- Malaysia and India impose higher duties, making Singapore competitive for tourists (LivePriceOfGold)
Why gold prices vary by country
- Import duties, local taxes, logistics, and retailer margins all affect the final per‑gram price
- Even within Singapore, the spread between retailers can be SGD 20+/g – larger than the cross‑country difference for some purities
The implication: Singapore is not inherently cheaper than all neighbours, but its GST exemption on bullion makes it an attractive hub for large‑volume investment purchases.
Five retailers, two purities, one pattern: the difference between official jeweller rates and third-party aggregators often exceeds SGD 20 per gram.

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy 24K gold bars in Singapore without GST?
Yes, investment‑grade gold (9999 purity) is exempt from Goods and Services Tax in Singapore, making it a tax‑free purchase for investors. Jewellery, however, is subject to GST at the standard rate.
What is the difference between 916 and 999 gold?
916 (22K) contains 91.6% pure gold and is commonly used for jewellery; 999 (24K) is 99.9% pure and preferred for bullion and bars. 916 is harder and more scratch‑resistant due to alloy metals.
How often does the gold rate in Singapore change?
Retail rates are typically updated once or twice per business day, though spot‑price movements can cause intraday adjustments. Always check the jeweller’s official site on the day of purchase.
Where is the best place to buy gold in Singapore?
Mustafa Centre and Joyalukkas are two of the most transparent retailers with online rate boards. For investment bars, consider Monetary Authority of Singapore‑approved dealers. Compare rates from at least two sources before buying.
Is it cheaper to buy gold in Singapore or Dubai?
Dubai has no import duty on gold and often offers lower jewellery premiums. However, Singapore’s GST exemption on investment bullion can make it competitive for large bar purchases. Travel costs and personal import rules in your home country also factor in.
How do I check the live gold price in Singapore?
Live prices are available on jeweller websites (Mustafa, Joyalukkas) and on aggregators such as LivePriceOfGold and GoodReturns. Use those sites before visiting a store.
