Dirham to PKR Rates On July 23, 2025 – Dirham edges up as rupee remains under pressure
The Pakistani Rupee saw a slight depreciation against the UAE Dirham on July 23, 2025. In the open market, the Dirham’s buying and selling rates are as follows:
| Currency | Buying Rate (PKR) | Selling Rate (PKR) |
|---|---|---|
| UAE Dirham (AED) | 79.40 | 79.55 |
On July 23, the UAE Dirham traded with a buying rate of ₨79.40 and a selling rate of ₨79.55, reflecting a modest rise compared to mid-July levels around ₨77.60. This upward shift signals increasing demand for the Dirham, likely driven by remittances and regional economic activity.

Analysts attribute the Dirham’s gain to steady inflows from the Gulf region, especially from Pakistani expatriates in the UAE. One foreign exchange strategist comments: “with remittance inflows holding firm and the rupee under pressure from imports and external obligations, the AED is naturally strengthening.” Should this trend persist, the Dirham might test the ₨80 mark soon, unless Pakistan sees a rise in remittances or stabilises its forex reserves.
Looking ahead, Dirham rates will likely remain in the ₨79.5–₨80 range. A continuing flow of remittances will support the Dirham, but any sharp improvement in Pakistan’s forex position could ease pressure on the rupee.
Overall, while the Dirham’s appreciation is moderate, its steady climb highlights broader pressures on the Pakistani currency and signals the importance of inward remittances in balancing the exchange rate.
