99.9% pure · 24/24 · hallmarked 99924K is gold with nothing meaningful added — 99.9% pure, stamped 999 or 9999. With no hardening alloy in it, it is genuinely soft: a 24K ring bends against a door handle and scratches against a car key, which is why, outside China and Hong Kong, where pure-gold jewellery is common, it is rarely sold for everyday wear.
Its real home is investment: bars, minted coins and the heavy chains some families buy by weight as savings rather than as ornament. Buying 24K, you are buying metal — the only two numbers that matter are the weight in grams and the premium the dealer adds over spot.
That purity also makes it the easiest karat to resell. A bar from a recognised refiner with its assay intact trades close to spot anywhere in the world, while jewellery of any karat is bought back on gold content alone — the craftsmanship you paid for is not part of the offer.

Today's Range & Spread
XAU/EGPEgypt gold market
Egypt's gold market is driven by jewellery demand at 21K and 18K. The Egyptian pound has been devalued several times since 2022, and local demand for gold tends to rise around devaluations as families protect their savings. VAT of 14% is charged on an agreed average making charge per gram, paid when the piece is hallmarked; the gold itself is not taxed. Cairo's main gold market is the El-Sagha quarter next to Khan el-Khalili.
Common questions about 24K gold in Egypt
- What is the 24K gold price today in Egypt?
- 24K gold price in Egypt is shown in EGP in the table above and keeps moving while the page is open. The price is derived from the international spot ounce price (XAU/USD, from Swissquote and live PAXG/USD quotes), divided by 31.1035 grams per troy ounce, multiplied by the purity ratio (99.9%), and converted at the daily EGP/USD FX rate.
- Does the Egypt gold price include making charges and VAT?
- No. The displayed price is the raw spot-equivalent gold value only. Egypt charges 14% VAT only on an agreed average making charge per gram, paid when the piece is hallmarked (the gold itself is not taxed). Jewellery shops add a making charge, which each shop sets, and their own margin.
- Why does 24K gold in Egypt differ from the global price?
- Global gold is priced in USD. The Egypt price shown here is the same global price converted to EGP at the daily FX rate, then divided to a per-gram value at the 24K purity ratio. There is no real price difference — just unit and currency conversion.
- Where do I buy 24K gold in Egypt?
- Gold is sold in Egypt at local gold souks and licensed goldsmiths. Always check the hallmark stamp to confirm karat, and obtain a documented receipt. The spot price shown here is your reference for evaluating the shop's price before making charges.
- How often is the Egypt gold price updated?
- The spot price is refreshed from Swissquote at least every five minutes and moves with live PAXG/USD quotes while the page is open. The EGP/USD exchange rate is the day's mid-market rate from the open-source currency-api feed. The price you see is the global spot price converted to the local currency.
