Get the live AED → PKR rate
Exchange rates move every minute, so this page won't quote a fixed number — open the converter above for the current mid-market AED/PKR rate (cached hourly, works offline with a fallback). The mid-market rate is the "real" rate; what your recipient actually gets depends on the provider's margin and fees below.
Best ways to send AED to Pakistan
| Provider | Typical cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| LuLu / Al Ansari Exchange | Low fee, branch + app | Popular UAE exchange houses |
| Wise | Low % margin, transparent | Mid-market rate |
| Remitly | Low fee; first-transfer promo | Fast, app-based |
| Western Union / Ria | Higher margin; cash pickup | Wide pickup network in Pakistan |
| Roshan Digital Account | Bank rate; for NRPs | Direct to PKR/FCY accounts |
Always compare the total received in PKR, not just the headline fee — a "zero fee" transfer can hide a poor exchange-rate margin.
Tips to get more PKR for your money
- Compare the total PKR received for your exact amount, not just the fee.
- UAE exchange houses (LuLu, Al Ansari) are often very competitive on this corridor.
- A Roshan Digital Account can offer attractive rates and incentives for overseas Pakistanis.
- Watch the exchange-rate margin, not just the upfront fee — that's where most cost hides.
- Send larger, less frequent transfers to spread fixed fees over more rupees.
