Gold purity explained — 24K, 22K, 18K
| Karat | Purity | Common use |
|---|---|---|
| 24K | 99.9% pure gold | Investment bars, coins |
| 22K | 91.6% gold | Most Nepali jewelry |
| 18K | 75% gold | Mixed jewelry, stones |
| 14K | 58.3% gold | Fashion jewelry |
Most gold jewelry sold in Nepal is 22K (Hallmark). When the jeweler quotes you a price per tola, confirm whether it is for 24K or 22K gold.
How Nepal gold price is set
Nepal's domestic gold price follows the international spot price (traded in USD per troy ounce on global markets) converted to NPR using the daily exchange rate, plus:
- Import duty and taxes
- Transport and insurance
- Dealer margin (typically 1–3%)
This is why Nepal gold price can be different from simply converting the international price to NPR.
