The Croatia gold market
Croatia retail gold prices are quoted in the local currency per gram for 24K and 22K purities, and per troy ounce for investment-grade bullion.

How Croatia 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 HRK/USD exchange rate comes from exchangerate-api.com's 2023 year-end snapshot.
Conversion. Every HRK figure on this page is computed as XAU/USD price × HRK/USD rate. We use the year-end exchange rate consistently across all January 2023 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 Croatia, add the country-specific levies described in the “Croatiagold market” section above.

HRK prices on this page are computed from the verified international XAU/USD spot price for January 2023 (sourced from gold-api.com), multiplied by the 2023-end HRK/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 kn figures here represent the international gold spot price converted to HRK at the 2023-end exchange rate. Croatia'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.
