Lahore, 10 September 2025 – The Saudi Riyal (SAR) to Pakistani Rupee (PKR) exchange rate continues to be closely tracked in Pakistan, as Saudi Arabia hosts the largest number of overseas Pakistani workers. These workers send billions in remittances every year, making the Riyal one of the most important foreign currencies for Pakistan’s economy.
SAR to PKR Exchange Rate – 10 September 2025
| Currency Pair | Buying Rate (PKR) | Selling Rate (PKR) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SAR to PKR | Rs. 75.05 | Rs. 75.25 |
This steady trend reflects the balance of demand and supply in the open market.
Why SAR to PKR Rate Matters
1. Overseas Remittances
Over 2 million Pakistanis live and work in Saudi Arabia. Their monthly remittances provide a vital source of foreign exchange, supporting:
-
Family expenses such as food, education, and healthcare.
-
Pakistan’s foreign reserves.
-
Stability in the local economy.
2. Imports and Businesses
Pakistan imports fuel, oil, and other goods from Saudi Arabia. When the rupee weakens against the Riyal, import costs rise, which can lead to higher inflation in the domestic market.
3. Pilgrims and Travelers
Every year, thousands of Pakistanis travel to Saudi Arabia for Hajj and Umrah. A weaker rupee means higher travel and accommodation expenses, directly impacting pilgrims’ budgets.
Factors Influencing SAR to PKR Rate
The exchange rate between the Saudi Riyal and Pakistani Rupee changes daily based on:
-
Currency demand in local markets
-
Pakistan’s economic stability
-
Dollar to Rupee parity (as Riyal is pegged to USD)
-
Global oil market trends
Conclusion
On 10 September 2025, the Saudi Riyal to Pakistani Rupee rate stands at Rs. 75.05 (buying) and Rs. 75.25 (selling) in Pakistan’s open market. With millions of families depending on remittances, the SAR to PKR exchange rate plays a critical role in the economy—impacting households, businesses, and religious tourism alike.
