Today’s gold price
Gold rate in Malaysia, explained
Today's gold rate in Malaysia is MYR 579.58 per gram for 24K, refreshed daily and shown in MYR with the AED equivalent alongside. Prices track the global gold market converted into MYR, so local rates rise and fall with both the international price and the exchange rate. Gold is a safe-haven asset and the region's favourite way to hold and gift value, and its price here is driven by the international spot price in US dollars, the local currency's strength against the dollar, and any local import duty or taxes. Wasli shows the number as an independent reference so you can benchmark any jeweller or dealer before you buy — free and with no sign-up.

What is the gold rate in Malaysia today?+
Today's gold rate in Malaysia is MYR 579.58 per gram for 24K, and about AED 520.80 per gram at today's exchange rate. The figure at the top of this page updates daily, so it's the freshest reference to check before you buy.
What is the difference between 24K, 22K and 21K gold?+
Gold is sold in karats: 24K is essentially pure, 22K (about 91.6% gold) is the usual choice for jewellery, and 21K and 18K contain more alloy for durability. Higher karats cost more per gram because there's more gold in them.
Why is the gold price going up or down in Malaysia?+
The daily move comes from the international spot price in US dollars, the local currency's strength against the dollar, and any local import duty or taxes. When the international price rises or the local currency weakens against the US dollar, the gold rate in Malaysia tends to climb — and the reverse pulls it lower. The "Why it's moving" panel above breaks down the main drivers for today.
Is it cheaper to buy gold in Malaysia than in other markets?+
It depends on the day's exchange rate and local taxes. Switch the panel above to "Compare" to see gold priced in AED per gram across every market we cover, cheapest first — a like-for-like view using the same live FX. Remember that jewellers also add making charges on top of the metal price when you actually buy.
How is the gold rate on this page calculated?+
We take the international gold spot price, convert it into MYR using the live mid-market exchange rate, and express it per gram at each purity. The result is an indicative reference number, not an offer to sell — always confirm the final price with your jeweller or dealer, as it will include their margin and any making charge.
Does Wasli sell gold?+
No. Wasli shows independent gold prices and trends so you can benchmark a fair rate — it never sells metal or holds your money. When you're ready to buy, you deal directly with a jeweller or dealer of your choice.
