View full history →About the Iraq gold market
Iraq applies no tax at all on gold, whether jewellery, bullion or traditional gold coins, so displayed prices reflect the international gold rate and Iraqi dinar exchange rate directly, without added duty. Alongside modern jewellery, two historic gold coins remain actively traded in Iraqi markets — the English Lira and the Rashadi Lira — while 21-karat is the most commonly requested purity for everyday jewellery.

Methodology
How we calculate the price
- We fetch the international spot gold price (XAU/USD) live from gold-api.com + xaus.com, with automatic failover between providers.
- The spot rate is converted into the local currency using live exchange rates from exchangerate-api.com, then scaled by purity (24K, 22K, 18K…) and by weight (gram, tola, ounce, kilogram, baht).
- The result is the pure spot value. Retail counters may add dealer premium, tax and making charges — the number here is the underlying benchmark.
