Dubai, February 21: Gold prices in Dubai, often referred to as the 'City of Gold,' continued their record-breaking streak on Saturday, February 21, reaching new milestones across all carats. Following a global trend of increased safe-haven buying, the price of 24-carat gold in the UAE climbed significantly, reflecting the ongoing volatility in international financial markets. Check out the 18K, 21K, 22K and 24K Dubai gold rate today, February 21, in AED, USD and INR below.

The gold market opened on a firm note this morning, with 24K gold trading at AED 608 per gram. This upward movement follows a consistent rally over the past 72 hours, spurred by a weakening US Dollar and anticipatory buying ahead of upcoming central bank announcements. In Dubai, the absence of value-added tax (VAT) on investment-grade gold bars continues to keep the city competitive compared to other global hubs, though the retail jewelry sector (18K and 22K) remains subject to standard local taxation. Gold Rate Today, February 21, 2026: Check 22K & 24K Gold Prices in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Other Cities.

Analysts attribute the current price surge to a "perfect storm" of economic factors. Geopolitical uncertainties in Eastern Europe and parts of Asia have driven investors toward bullion as a hedge against risk. Furthermore, technical traders noted that gold successfully breached a critical resistance level on the spot market last night, triggering automated buy orders that carried over into the Dubai opening. Dubai Gold Rate Today: 18K, 22K, 24K Gold Prices for February 20.

Local retailers have observed that while the high prices have slowed some bulk purchases, the demand for 22K jewelry remains resilient, particularly among shoppers looking for long-term value retention.
