On August 14, 2026, the Gold Traders Association reported a notable decrease in domestic gold prices. According to data published on their website at 09:01 local time, the price of gold fell by 750 baht compared to the previous day's closing figures.
For those living in or visiting Thailand, this adjustment brings the selling price of gold ornaments to 68,800 baht per baht-weight.
