What’s Driving the AED → PKR Rate?
Several factors are influencing how AED is performing against PKR:
- Pegging of AED to USD
The UAE Dirham (AED) to Pakistani Rupee (PKR) is pegged to the US Dollar (USD ~ 3.6725 AED = 1 USD). Global dollar strength or weakness tends to ripple into AED indirectly. - Economic Conditions in Pakistan
Inflation, interest rate policy, foreign-exchange reserves, import/export balance, political stability—all influence the value of PKR. When PKR is under pressure, AED appears stronger. - Remittances & Supply of Foreign Currency
Workers in the UAE sending money back home bring foreign currency into Pakistan, which can help strengthen PKR somewhat or slow its decline, depending on volume and timing. - Global Market Sentiment & Oil Prices
UAE is an oil producer. Changes in oil prices, global demand, trade balances, and investor perception influence AED’s purchasing power and indirectly its exchange relationship with PKR.
Comparisons with Past Periods
To see how things have changed:
- 1 year ago: AED to PKR was lower (around PKR 75.50-76), meaning PKR has depreciated since then.
- 6 months ago: Rate fluctuated in the range of PKR 76.50-77.90; today’s rate is toward the upper part of that range.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
What is the most reliable source for checking AED to PKR rates?
Banks, the State Bank of Pakistan, and trusted remittance platforms. Always check what fees and margins apply.
Why do different sources show slightly different rates?
Because of markups, transaction fees, bid/ask spread, time of day, and whether it’s a mid-market rate or customer transfer rate.
Is PKR weakening rapidly against AED?
Not “rapidly” in recent weeks — changes have been gradual. The trend shows some weakening over months, but the exchange rate has held relatively steady over short term.
Current Rate
- The current rate is ~ PKR 77.29 per AED, not PKR 76.70 as earlier stated.
- The 30-day highs and lows are in the range of PKR 76.65 – PKR 77.70, rather than rigidly around 77.52 or “staying at 77 mark” only.
- Some historical rate values previously given (e.g. 1 year ago, 6 months ago) have been updated based on the most recent available data.
Final Word
The AED to PKR exchange rate as of mid-September 2025 is moderately strong, with 1 AED trading around PKR 77.29. While short-term stability prevails, longer-term pressures on the Pakistani Rupee (inflation, reserves, trade balance) suggest potential for further volatility. Whether you are transferring remittances, importing/exporting, or simply watching the markets, staying informed—and comparing real rates including fees—is the best strategy.
