91.7% pure · 22/24 · hallmarked 91622K is 91.7% gold — twenty-two parts gold to two parts alloy, stamped 916. That small amount of copper and silver is enough to hold a shape without dulling the deep yellow that buyers in South Asia and the Gulf associate with real gold.
It is the wedding-and-inheritance karat: bangles, heavy necklaces and the sets given at marriage, bought as much for the weight they hold as for the design. India in particular prices most of its jewellery trade at 916, and the hallmark is checked as routine.
The trade-off is durability. 22K still marks more easily than 18K, so it suits pieces worn on occasions rather than rings worn daily through washing-up and work — which is why the same shop will sell you a 22K necklace and an 18K ring without contradiction.
The dominant retail karat in Myanmar is 24K, so 22K is usually a deliberate choice here — bought for what it does better, not because it is what the shop happened to have.

Myanmar gold market
Myanmar's retail gold market centres on 24K gold (99.9% pure), quoted locally per gram in MMK. As a free-floating currency, the MMK means prices also reflect daily MMK/USD exchange-rate moves. Myanmar trades gold at very high purity, traditionally by the kyattha weight (about 16.6 g), with Yangon's market setting daily reference rates.
Common questions about 22K gold in Myanmar
- How is the 22K gold price in Myanmar calculated?

- Why does the gold price differ between shops in Myanmar?
- The raw spot price is the same across all shops. Differences come from three factors: (1) making charges (5-30 local units per gram), (2) retailer margin (3-10%), (3) local tax if applicable. The price shown here is the floor reference before any add-ons.
