AED to PKR: UAE Dirham to Pakistani Rupee Rate Today – Feb. 10, 2026

Karachi/Dubai, Feb. 10 – The UAE Dirham (AED) is trading at 77.35 Pakistani Rupees in the open market today, marking a noticeable strengthening of 0.99 PKR compared to recent levels.
This is the highest open-market rate recorded in the past several months, pushing the pair back toward the upper end of its 2025 trading range (typically 76.00–77.60 PKR) and bringing the AED to its strongest point since mid-July 2025 when it briefly touched 77.61 PKR.
What’s driving the rise today?
Market participants point to a combination of:
- Mild USD strengthening overnight after US economic data releases
- End-of-month and year-end positioning in UAE forex desks
- Seasonal demand for AED ahead of salary payments and holiday travel outflows
- Reduced PKR supply in the open market following recent SBP interventions
Even with today’s jump, the Dirham remains only about 1.3% above January 2025 averages (~76.30 PKR), showing that the long-term trend has been remarkably stable.
Immediate impact on Pakistani families
For the estimated 1.5 million Pakistanis working in the UAE, today’s rate means every dirham sent home now buys 77.35 PKR — delivering a meaningful increase in purchasing power.
A worker earning 4,000 AED now remits approximately 309,400 PKR instead of ~305,000 PKR at lower rates — an extra ~4,400 rupees per salary. Across hundreds of thousands of households, this adds up to tens of millions of additional rupees flowing into Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and other regions each month.
