What is a Momme? Palladium weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The momme (3.75 g) is the traditional Japanese unit of mass, best known for pearls but also used for precious metals. Locally it is written 匁. One momme equals 3.75 grams, or 0.12057 troy ounces, which at today's palladium spot price works out to — SAR.
Where it is used. Japanese jewellers and pearl dealers quote per momme, and it is the unit behind many antique Japanese silver weights. The unit is the trading standard in Japan.
Pricing conventions. Japanese bullion dealers publish tax-inclusive yen prices per gram, so a momme quote is usually a conversion rather than the headline rate. Palladium is almost entirely an industrial metal, so a retail quote in this unit is a conversion from the ounce price rather than a rate you will see posted in a shop.
Good to know. One momme equals one tenth of a Taiwanese tael and matches the Korean don exactly.

Buying Palladium in Saudi Arabia: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per momme, the price you see here is the international XPD spot price converted into Saudi Riyal. Physical buyers in Saudi Arabia pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Riyadh and Jeddah gold markets. Buyers there generally watch the LBMA price converted at the fixed SAR/USD peg as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Jewellery and non-investment metal carry the full 15% VAT, making bullion the cheaper way to hold weight. Palladium is dominated by industrial buyers, so retail coins and bars are scarce and premiums move sharply with supply news. That is why the shop price of palladium in SAR can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same momme of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in Saudi Arabia are licensed gold souq retailers, bank bullion services, online GCC dealers and regional refiners. The products most often quoted locally include 21K jewellery, 1 oz coins, 100 g and 1 kg bars.
Local conventions. 21K (875) gold dominates Saudi jewellery, and the riyal's dollar peg means local prices track the USD gold price almost exactly. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per momme with the live palladium 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 SAR quote.
