What is a Baht? Silver weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The gold baht is 15.244 g of 96.5% pure gold as sold in Thai shops, or 15.16 g when the metal is pure. Locally it is written บาท. One baht equals 15.244 grams, or 0.49011 troy ounces, which at today's silver spot price works out to — HKD.
Where it is used. Thai gold shops sell chains and bars by the baht, and the Gold Traders Association publishes a daily buy and sell rate for exactly this unit. The unit is the trading standard in Thailand.
Pricing conventions. Thai 96.5% jewellery carries a small fixed workmanship charge rather than a percentage premium, which is why Thai gold is unusually easy to resell near its quoted value. Silver is bulkier per unit of value, so quotes in small traditional units are usually a conversion, while real trade happens in kilogram and 1 000 oz bars.
Good to know. The weight unit shares its name with the currency but is entirely separate — a 'one baht' chain is a weight, not a price.

Buying Silver in Hong Kong: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per baht, the price you see here is the international XAG spot price converted into Hong Kong Dollar. Physical buyers in Hong Kong pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Hong Kong's Chinese Gold & Silver Exchange Society. Buyers there generally watch the CGSE loco London and loco Hong Kong tael quotes as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Silver, platinum and palladium are equally untaxed, which keeps retail premiums among the lowest in Asia. Silver is bulkier and cheaper per unit, so shipping, storage and consumption taxes matter far more to the final price than they do for gold. That is why the shop price of silver in HKD can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same baht of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in Hong Kong are CGSE member dealers, Chow Sang Sang and other jewellers, bank paper gold accounts and vault storage providers. The products most often quoted locally include tael bars (37.429 g), 999.9 gold bars, Kilobars, 999 gold jewellery.
Local conventions. The Hong Kong tael of 37.429 g is the classic local trading weight, and 99.99 'chuk kam' gold jewellery is bought largely by weight. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per baht with the live silver 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 HKD quote.
