Gold Making Charges in Singapore

In Singapore, gold making charges are an essential component of the overall cost when purchasing gold jewelry. These charges typically vary based on the jeweler, the design complexity, and the type of gold used. Generally, the making charges are expressed as a percentage of the gold's gram price, which can range from approximately 5% to 20%. This percentage is added on top of the prevailing market price of gold to account for labor, craftsmanship, and design.

To give a clearer picture, if the current market price of gold is around SGD 80 per gram, a jeweler charging 10% as making charges would add SGD 8 to the total cost per gram, making the effective price for the customer SGD 88 per gram. Depending on the intricacy of the piece, making charges may also be presented as an absolute value, which can range widely, with simpler designs costing around SGD 5 to SGD 15 in making fees per gram. Buyers should always inquire about these charges upfront to avoid unexpected costs and to make informed purchasing decisions.
