Palladium Prices in Bahrain

Palladium price in Bahrain today

A gram of fine (999) palladium in Bahrain is 12.621 BHD right now, an ounce 392.544 BHD and a kilo 12,620.583 BHD. Palladium .950 costs 11.990 BHD per gram because it contains only 95.0% pure metal.

The Bahraini dinar is pegged to the US dollar at 0.376 dinars per dollar, and prices are shown to three decimals.

How we calculate these prices

We take the global price per ounce in dollars (1,044.00), divide by 31.1035 for the gram price, then multiply by the BHD exchange rate and the purity. Prices are indicative and exclude making charges or dealer margins.

Tips for buying palladium in Bahrain

• The palladium market is small and very volatile; prices can move sharply within days.
• Check the purity stamp (Pd950 or Pd500) on jewellery.
• Compare with the global ounce price before buying — investment palladium products are scarce in Gulf markets.
