Bahrain gold market
Bahrain's gold market is small but historically significant — Manama hosts one of the oldest gold souks in the Gulf. 21K and 22K dominate jewellery sales. The Bahraini Dinar (BHD) is pegged to USD at 0.376. Bahrain introduced 10% VAT in 2022 but exempts investment-grade gold (≥99% purity). Customs duties on gold are zero under GCC free-trade rules.
