What is a Gram? Gold weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The gram is the everyday retail unit for precious metals outside the English-speaking wholesale market. One gram equals 1 grams, or 0.03215 troy ounces, which at today's gold spot price works out to — THB.
Where it is used. Jewellers, pawn shops and scrap buyers all quote per gram, and small investment bars start at 1 g, 5 g, 10 g, 20 g, 50 g and 100 g. The unit is the trading standard in Europe, Middle East and most retail markets.
Pricing conventions. Premiums rise sharply as gram size falls: a 1 g bar can cost 20–40% over melt value, while a 100 g bar sits within a few percent of spot. Scrap offers are usually a discount to the gram price by karat. Gold is the metal most often traded in these traditional units, because jewellery and savings demand kept the old weights alive long after industry went metric.
Good to know. Gram pricing is also how most karat calculations are done: multiply the gram price by the purity fraction (for example 0.750 for 18K).

Buying Gold in Thailand: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per gram, the price you see here is the international XAU spot price converted into Thai Baht. Physical buyers in Thailand pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Bangkok's Yaowarat (Chinatown) gold shops. Buyers there generally watch the Gold Traders Association buy/sell quote updated many times a day as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. 96.5% gold ornaments and bars are effectively VAT-free on the metal value; VAT applies only to the workmanship margin. Gold is the deepest of the four precious metals markets, so local retail spreads are usually the tightest and buy-back is easiest. That is why the shop price of gold in THB can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same gram of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in Thailand are Yaowarat gold shops, Gold Traders Association members, TFEX gold futures and gold savings plans. The products most often quoted locally include 1 baht ornament gold, 96.5% bars, gold necklaces sold by baht weight.
Local conventions. Thai gold is quoted per baht weight (15.244 g) at 96.5% purity, with buy and sell prices posted publicly by the Gold Traders Association. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per gram with the live gold price above, and check the buy-back spread the same dealer offers — that round-trip cost matters more than a small difference in the headline THB quote.
