In Iran, the most commonly used gold karats are 18K, 24K, and 14K, reflecting both cultural preferences and market demands. 18K gold is the most popular choice, consisting of 75% gold and 25% other metals, which enhances its durability while retaining a rich golden hue. This balance makes it ideal for a variety of jewelry items, including rings, necklaces, and bracelets.
24K gold, or pure gold, is also widely favored, especially for investment purposes and traditional jewelry. With its 100% gold composition, 24K gold is prized for its bright yellow color and value. However, its softness limits its use for everyday jewelry due to susceptibility to scratches and dents.
14K gold, containing 58.3% gold, is less common but still found in some jewelry. It offers a good compromise between affordability and durability, making it suitable for casual wear. Overall, while 24K and 18K are prevalent for traditional and luxury items, 14K remains a less frequently chosen option in the Iranian market.
The price of gold in Iran is influenced by multiple factors, leading to fluctuations in its market value. One of the primary determinants is the global gold price, which is set in international markets and serves as a benchmark. As Iran engages in trade globally, any changes in the international price directly impact local prices.
Additionally, local demand and supply play a crucial role. In times of economic uncertainty or inflation, Iranians often turn to gold as a safe-haven asset, increasing demand. Conversely, if demand decreases due to economic stability or other investment opportunities, prices may drop.
Moreover, currency value has a significant effect. The Iranian rial’s strength relative to major currencies, particularly the US dollar, can cause gold prices to rise or fall. If the rial weakens, gold becomes more expensive for local buyers.
Government policies, such as import regulations and taxation, can also affect gold prices in Iran. Restrictions on imports may lead to limited availability, thereby increasing prices. Overall, the interplay of these factors contributes to the dynamic landscape of gold pricing in Iran.
The gold market in Iran has been facing significant fluctuations influenced by various economic factors, including inflation, currency devaluation, and geopolitical tensions. Experts predict that the price of gold in Iran may continue to rise due to the ongoing depreciation of the Iranian rial and the persistent inflationary pressures affecting the economy.
Recently, analysts have observed that as the national currency weakens, many Iranians are turning to gold as a safe-haven asset. This shift contributes to increased demand, driving up gold prices further. In the short term, gold prices may see volatility; however, the long-term outlook remains bullish. Economic sanctions and political instability are likely to sustain high levels of uncertainty, prompting more investors to seek refuge in gold.
In addition, the global gold market trends—particularly in relation to the U.S. dollar and international interest rates—will play a crucial role in determining gold prices in Iran. The overall assessment suggests that while temporary dips may occur, the underlying trend is expected to be an upward trajectory towards the end of 2024.

In Iran, the gold making charges, which refer to the costs associated with crafting gold jewelry, play a vital role in the overall price of gold products. These charges are typically expressed as a percentage of the gram price of gold. Currently, the making charges can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the design and the craftsmanship involved, usually ranging from 5% to 15% of the gold's market price.
Considering the market price of gold, which as of late October 2023 is approximately 140 million Iranian Rials per gram, the making charges can therefore translate to an absolute value of around 7 million to 21 million Iranian Rials per gram. This means that for a gram of gold priced at 140 million Rials, customers could expect to pay between 147 million and 161 million Rials when incorporating the making charges into the purchase. Thus, in Iran, understanding these charges is essential for consumers looking to buy gold jewelry, as they significantly impact the final price of the product.
