Thailand Metal Prices Today
Prices in Baht (THB) · Reference market: Closed SGX
Thailand's gold market runs on its own weight system — the baht — which has nothing to do with the currency of the same name and everything to do with centuries of local tradition.
A Unit of Weight, Not Just a Currency
Thai gold shops traditionally price and trade gold by the "baht weight" (roughly 15.2 grams), a completely different concept from the Thai baht currency that happens to share the name — a detail that trips up most first-time visitors to a Thai gold shop.
A Reference Price Set Locally
The Thai Gold Traders Association publishes its own domestic reference price, updated through the trading day — a locally-run benchmark that sits alongside, rather than simply mirroring, the internationally-derived price shown here.
Did You Know?
Gold shops are a genuine fixture of Thai retail streets — buying and selling gold jewellery and ornaments for cash is a routine, everyday transaction in a way it isn't in most Western economies.
