The Mozambique gold market
Mozambique retail gold prices are quoted in the local currency per gram for 24K and 22K purities, and per troy ounce for investment-grade bullion. Local rates usually sit above the international XAU/USD spot price after import duties, sales taxes, and jewellery making charges are applied. Use this archive as the international reference price; final retail rates depend on your dealer and the date's exchange rate.

How Mozambique gold prices are calculated on this page
Source. The international XAU/USD spot price comes from gold-api.com's historical archive (London PM-fix benchmark). The MZN/USD exchange rate comes from exchangerate-api.com's 2020 year-end snapshot.
Conversion. Every MZN figure on this page is computed as XAU/USD price × MZN/USD rate. We use the year-end exchange rate consistently across all July 2020 prices on this page.
Per-unit math. Per-gram = per-ounce ÷ 31.1035. Per-tola = per-gram × 11.664. Per-10g = per-gram × 10. Per-kilo = per-gram × 1000. Karat values multiply per-gram by the purity ratio (24K = 0.999, 22K = 0.916, 21K = 0.875, 18K = 0.750, 14K = 0.585, 10K = 0.417).
What this page does NOT include. Local sales tax / VAT, customs duty on imports, dealer making charges, jewellery design premiums, or coin numismatic premiums. To go from this pure-metal value to a final retail rate in Mozambique, add the country-specific levies described in the “Mozambiquegold market” section above.
FAQ — Mozambique gold price in July 2020
What was the gold price in Mozambique in July 2020?
Historical MZN gold price archive for Mozambique in July 2020.
What was the 24K gold rate per tola in Mozambique in July 2020?
Tola-based gold rate for Mozambique in July 2020 requires both XAU/USD and MZN/USD data which is unavailable for this period.
What was the 24K gold rate per gram in Mozambique in July 2020?
Retail rate calculation requires international XAU/USD spot and MZN/USD FX, both of which are missing for this period.
How was the local currency price calculated?
MZN prices on this page are computed from the verified international XAU/USD spot price for July 2020 (sourced from gold-api.com), multiplied by the 2020-end MZN/USD exchange rate from exchangerate-api.com. We use year-end rates as a single reference point for the entire month — for most stable currencies the within-year FX drift is small, but during currency crises (PKR 2022–23, TRY 2022, ARS 2024 etc.) the actual mid-month rate may differ.
Why does the retail price in shops differ from this number?
The MT figures here represent the international gold spot price converted to MZN at the 2020-end exchange rate. Mozambique's retail jewellers add (1) import duties and sales tax (varies by SKU and karat), (2) dealer making charges (typically 3–12% of metal value), and (3) a small premium for purity certification on bars. Always verify the exact day's retail rate with a reputable local dealer before transacting.
