Gold Rate in the UK Today

Live 24K, 22K, 21K and 18K gold price per gram in the UK today in GBP, plus a gold value calculator and Hatton Garden market context.

Today's gold rate in UK

📍Gold is priced on a national benchmark, so the rate below is the same across the UK — including at UK's own Hatton Garden (London), London's historic jewelry district, known for wholesale dealers and bespoke jewelry workshops. The only thing that varies by jeweller (in UK or anywhere else) is the making charge added on top — always ask for that to be shown separately from the gold rate.

How It Works

This page shows the live gold price per gram in the UK in pounds sterling (GBP), converted from the international LBMA benchmark and adjusted for approximate local duties and taxes. The same rate applies across the UK, including at London's Hatton Garden jewelry district, while the making charge varies by seller.

How the GBP rate is calculated

The international gold price per gram is converted into pounds using the current USD-to-GBP relationship, then adjusted by a small local premium that stands in for duties and taxes. This gives a practical estimate of the metal's value before making charges.

Why VAT rules matter for UK gold

Investment bullion and jewelry are treated differently for VAT. Jewelry often carries VAT on the making charge and sometimes on the full price, so the final figure on a receipt can differ from the simple gold value. Check the breakdown before comparing sellers.

Examples

Pricing a 10g 22K ring

If the 22K base rate shown above is £60/gram, 10 grams is 10 × 60 = £600 in gold value, before making charges and VAT.

Adding a making charge

A 10g 22K chain at £60/gram is £600 in gold value. A 15% making charge adds £90 before any VAT that applies to the charge.

Common Use Cases

  • Checking today's GBP gold rate before buying jewelry in London or online
  • Comparing making-charge quotes between Hatton Garden dealers and high-street shops
  • Estimating the value of gold jewelry or coins before selling
  • Tracking gold in pounds for savings or investment planning

Tips

  • Ask whether the quoted price includes VAT and how the making charge is taxed.
  • Look for a hallmark on UK jewelry, since UK law requires precious metal items to be assayed and marked.
