NBP issues foreign exchange rates

The National Bank of Pakistan's treasury arm posted its foreign exchange quotations on Monday, 31 August 2026, as reported by Mettis Global. The dollar was priced at Rs277.90 to sell and Rs277.40 to buy, while the euro carried quotes of Rs322.10 and Rs321.52. Sterling was offered at Rs376.40 and bid at Rs375.72, within a wider list of 21 currencies.

The bank also published conversion rates for frozen foreign currency deposits: US dollar Rs277.453, British pound Rs376.8922, euro Rs323.094 and yen Rs1.7389. These figures apply to settlement on Wednesday, 2 September 2026. Five currencies flagged with an asterisk, including the New Zealand dollar and Qatari riyal, are unavailable to the bank's customers.

Transactions above 5,000 US dollars, or their equivalent in other currencies, fall outside these rates when measured cumulatively. The bank describes the release as a routine currency update, intended to show how foreign money is valued.
