Pakistan Rupee Exchange Rates Steady Amid Market Trends

Currency exchange rates in Pakistan have far-reaching consequences for businesses, consumers, and the government. The value of the Pakistani rupee (PKR) against other major currencies such as the US dollar (USD), euro, and the British pound has a significant impact on trade balances, inflation, remittances, and investment.

The exchange rates are closely monitored by overseas Pakistanis and investors on a daily basis. Fluctuations in exchange rates can affect foreign direct investment (FDI) and make it less attractive to foreign investors due to the risk of exchange rate losses.

According to current data, the US dollar remains steady against the Pakistani rupee with a buying rate of 278.4 and a selling rate of 278.8 as of August 18, 2026. Other notable rates include the euro at 320.05 for buying and 324.55 for selling, while the UK pound sterling is at 374.89 and 380.84, respectively.
