Reference rate vs. remittance rate
This page shows the mid-market reference rate, updated daily. Banks and exchange companies (and transfer apps) give a slightly lower rate and may add a transfer fee. Use this page to check how good their offer really is.
real cost = (reference rate − offered rate) × amount + transfer fee
Tips before sending money home
- Compare the total amount received, not just the fee — a “zero fee” transfer can hide a weak rate.
- Rates move every day; for large amounts, check a few times before sending.
- The Saudi riyal is pegged to the US dollar (about 3.75 SAR = 1 USD) and the UAE dirham at 3.6725, so SAR→INR mostly follows the USD→INR rate.
Reference rates for information only — not an offer to exchange money.
