Pakistan’s open market currency exchange rates showed relative stability on April 22, 2026, with major international currencies maintaining their levels against the rupee.
The US Dollar (USD), considered the benchmark currency, was recorded at Rs 279.10 for buying and Rs 281.45 for selling. The British Pound (GBP) and Euro (EUR) were traded at Rs 376.96/382.75 and Rs 327.49/332.96, respectively.
Currencies from the Gulf region, including the UAE Dirham (AED) and Saudi Riyal (SAR), remained steady at Rs75.95/77.00 and Rs74.30/75.45. These currencies are closely linked to remittance inflows, which remain a key support for Pakistan’s external account.

Experts suggest that the limited movement in exchange rates reflects a cautious trading environment, although global financial trends, oil prices, and geopolitical tensions continue to pose potential risks.
Currency rates are subject to change based on market dynamics and may differ slightly between exchange dealers.
