About gold in Bangladesh
KmalServico’s Bangladesh page uses Bangladeshi taka (BDT) and tola as its configured primary weight. In Bangladesh, the traditional unit is also known as bhori in gold-trade usage, while modern references may also be given in grams.
Market notes for Bangladesh
Bangladesh's daily gold rates are set by BAJUS (the Bangladesh Jewellers' Association), which publishes official prices for 22K, 21K and 18K gold — not 24K, since 99.9% pure gold is considered too soft for everyday jewellery in the Bangladeshi market. BAJUS's 2023 guidelines also made hallmarking mandatory and set a minimum making charge of Tk 300 per gram, both binding on member jewellers.
Buying gold in Bangladesh
When comparing a jewellery quotation, ask for the exact weight and purity rather than only the total price. This is particularly useful when a seller uses bhori or tola language while another gives a gram price. KmalServico’s live reference can then be used as the metal-value benchmark. Country-specific tax or regulatory claims are intentionally omitted until verified from Bangladeshi government sources.
Tax and duty notes for Bangladesh
As of the 2026-27 national budget, Bangladesh replaced the earlier 5% ad-valorem VAT on gold and platinum jewellery with a flat, weight-based VAT of Tk 2,500 per bhori, alongside a cut to the jewellery source tax from 5% to 0.5%. The same budget reduced the capital gains tax on profit from selling gold and jewellery from an earlier proposed 15% down to 5% in the final bill.

Gold Price in Bangladesh — FAQs
What is bhori in relation to gold weight in Bangladesh?
Bhori is a traditional name used for gold weight in Bangladesh and is closely related to the South Asian tola convention. KmalServico uses tola as the configured primary unit and provides conversions to grams.
How can I compare a bhori quote with a gram quote?
Convert both quotations to the same weight and confirm the same purity. This prevents the unit name itself from creating a misleading price comparison.

Methodology
How we calculate the price
- We fetch the international spot gold price (XAU/USD) live from gold-api.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.
