Pakistan’s currency market is remaining active as the rupee is trading with limited volatility against major international currencies in the open market, reflecting balanced demand and supply conditions.
The US Dollar is currently trading at around Rs 281 buying and Rs 283 selling, remaining the most watched currency due to its role in Pakistan’s trade and financial obligations. Importers are staying alert, while exporters are adjusting strategies in response to the rupee’s movement.
The Saudi Riyal is hovering near Rs 74.80 on the buying side and Rs 75.45 on the selling side. Strong labor connections between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are keeping the Riyal in consistent demand, with remittances continuing to support household consumption across the country.
Similarly, the UAE Dirham is trading close to Rs 76.60 buying and Rs 77.50 selling. Pakistanis working in the UAE are regularly sending money home, helping stabilize foreign exchange flows and supporting the rupee.

Meanwhile, the Omani Riyal is standing at approximately Rs 728.65 buying and Rs 738.65 selling. Oman continues to employ a sizable Pakistani workforce, and regular remittances are supporting foreign exchange inflows.
