Bahrain Gold Market — Manama Souq
The main gold market in Bahrain is the Gold Souk in Manama Souq (also called Bab Al-Bahrain area) in central Manama. The souq houses hundreds of gold and jewelry shops selling 18K, 21K, 22K, and 24K gold in Arabic, Indian, and Western styles. Bahrain’s gold market is well-established and has been a GCC trading hub for centuries.
Bahrain Gold — Tax and Duty
Bahrain introduced 5% VAT in 2019 on most goods and services including gold jewelry. This makes it comparable to Dubai’s VAT rate. However, investment gold (bars and coins of 99% purity or higher) is zero-rated in Bahrain, just as in the UAE.
