The UAE is also a significant investor in Pakistan. The two countries have strong economic ties and are working together to further enhance trade and investment cooperation.
The UAE is a popular destination for Pakistani tourists. In the first six months of 2022, 193,000 Pakistani tourists visited Dubai. Significant numbers also visit Abu Dhabi.
The UAE is known for its luxury hotels, shopping malls, and iconic tourist attractions, and Pakistani tourists are drawn to its reputation as a glamorous destination. The proximity of the UAE to Pakistan makes it an ideal destination for Pakistani tourists who are looking for a short getaway. The UAE is a Muslim-majority country, and as such, Pakistani nationals feel a sense of connection with the country and its people. In addition, the UAE is home to a large Pakistani expatriate community, which provides a support network for Pakistani tourists.

Money Transfers from the UAE to Pakistan – Personal Remittances
According to the United Nations, the UAE is home to almost 1 million Pakistanis. Many Pakistani migrants in the UAE are supporting families in their home country. These migrants convert dirhams to Pakistani rupees when sending money to Pakistan.
Data from the State Bank of Pakistan shows that in August 2022, non-resident Pakistani workers remitted around $2.7 billion. Of this $691 million was sent by workers in Saudi Arabia and $531 million by workers in the UAE.
In 2020, the World Bank estimates that personal remittances sent to Pakistan by migrants amounted to 8.7 per cent of Pakistan’s GDP.
Factors Influencing the AED to PKR Exchange Rate
When it comes to the AED to PKR exchange rate, it is important to remember that the UAE dirham is pegged to the USD. This means the dirham to PKR exchange rate is subject to the same forces that influence the USD to PKR exchange rate.
One of the factors that can influence the AED to PKR exchange rate is the interest rates in the UAE and Pakistan. If the interest rate in the UAE is higher than in Pakistan, then this can make the AED more attractive to investors. This can cause the dirham to Pakistani rupee rate to rise.
However, if the interest rate in the UAE is lower than in Pakistan, then this can make the AED less attractive to investors.
It is important to note that, as a result of the long-standing peg between the US dollar and UAE dirham, the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE) typically adjusts interest rates in response to changes by the US Federal Reserve. By keeping interest rates in alignment with those in the US, CBUAE helps to stabilise the UAE dirham and avoid market volatility. In addition, this policy helps to discourage speculation against the UAE currency.
Oil and gas prices can also influence the AED to PKR exchange rate. Pakistan is highly dependent on imported fuels. Fuel prices are one of the main drivers of inflation in Pakistan. When the oil and gas prices go up, the prices of other goods and services also rise. A high inflation rate can damage a currency’s value and exchange rate.
Political instability can have a significant impact on a country’s exchange rate. When investors perceive a country to be politically unstable, they are less likely to want to hold its currency. This can lead to a decline in the value of the currency, as investors sell it off in favour of more stable currencies. In 2022, Pakistan was in political turmoil after a no-confidence motion against Imran Khan forced his removal as prime minister. This contributed to the PKR falling to an all-time low against the USD and AED.
