The Pakistani Rupee (PKR) continued to trade within a narrow range against major foreign currencies on Friday, 30 January 2026, as the foreign exchange market remained largely stable.
The US Dollar (USD) weakened slightly, with buying recorded around PKR 279.70 and selling near PKR 279.80. Currency dealers said the marginal movement reflects balanced demand and steady inflows, keeping the rupee under control.
The British Pound (GBP) showed mild downward pressure, trading close to PKR 377.25–377.33. Despite the slight dip, market sentiment around GBP remained cautious amid global economic uncertainties.
Key Middle Eastern currencies important for remittances remained unchanged. The UAE Dirham (AED) held steady at PKR 76.15, while the Saudi Riyal (SAR) traded flat around PKR 75.05–75.09. Stability in these currencies continues to support overseas Pakistanis sending remittances back home.
Overall, the forex market reflected calm trading conditions, with no major volatility seen during the session. Analysts believe the rupee’s near-term direction will depend on global dollar trends, import demand, and upcoming economic indicators.
