AED to PKR: UAE Dirham to Pakistani Rupee Rate- Dec 1, 2025

KARACHI – The UAE Dirham to Pakistani Rupee exchange rate stands at PKR 76.37 on Thursday, November 27, 2025, establishing a new record low for the year and demonstrating exceptional Rupee strength.

This historic positioning delivers maximum advantages for cross-border transactions as November draws to a close.

Today’s rate of 76.37 PKR marks a historic milestone, surpassing the previous record low of 76.3583 PKR set on November 29 according to recent data. Market sources show varied rates with some indicating Rs. 76.70 and Rs. 76.93, though the mid-market rate reflects the strongest Rupee positioning achieved this year.

Over the past 90 days, the Dirham has weakened by 0.02% against the Rupee, declining from Rs. 76.7189 to Rs. 76.7013 per Dirham. This trend reflects the changing economic dynamics between the UAE and Pakistan, with Pakistan’s currency demonstrating resilience.

Currency Profiles: Fixed Versus Floating

UAE Dirham: The Central Bank of the UAE maintains a fixed peg at 3.6725 AED per US Dollar since 1997, ensuring exceptional stability. The Dirham is abbreviated as AED and symbolized by د.إ. Known for its stability, the Dirham is pegged to the US dollar, providing predictability in foreign exchange. Over 1.5 million Pakistanis work across Emirates in diverse sectors, generating substantial remittance channels.

Pakistani Rupee: Operating under a managed float mechanism, the Rupee is subdivided into 100 paise and adjusts to trade balance variations, foreign exchange reserve fluctuations, inflation pressures, and remittance inflows. Today’s record strength signals highly effective monetary supervision and successful policy execution.

Valuation Determinants

Inflation Gaps: Pakistan’s elevated inflation compared to the UAE’s near-zero inflation continuously erodes the Rupee’s purchasing capacity, requiring State Bank interventions through monetary policy modifications and interest rate adjustments.

Energy Price Impact: Global oil valuations affect both economies asymmetrically—bolstering the UAE as an exporter while straining Pakistan as an importer. The UAE’s robust economy is driven by oil exports and international trade, supporting the Dirham’s strength.

Remittance Channels: The UAE serves as Pakistan’s second-largest remittance source after Saudi Arabia. Consistent inflows reinforce currency stability and strengthen foreign exchange reserves, underpinning today’s favorable positioning.

Trade Deficits: Pakistan imports considerable quantities of fuel, machinery, and consumer goods from the UAE, creating ongoing Dirham requirements balanced by robust remittance inflows.
