rupee vs dollar

Karachi, January 6, 2026 — Exchange companies across Pakistan on Tuesday released the latest open market currency exchange rates to facilitate the general public, importers, exporters, and overseas remittance recipients amid fluctuating global financial conditions.

According to market data, the open market exchange rates were updated at 3:30 PM Pakistan Standard Time (PST) and reflect prevailing demand and supply dynamics in the currency market. Currency dealers noted that rates remained largely volatile due to movements in the international foreign exchange market, changing interest rate expectations, and regional economic developments.

The US dollar continued to trade at elevated levels against the Pakistani rupee, while major global currencies such as the euro, British pound, and Swiss franc also maintained strong positions. Gulf currencies, including the Saudi riyal and UAE dirham, showed minor fluctuations, reflecting stable demand driven by remittances from overseas Pakistanis.

Market analysts said that open market rates often differ slightly from interbank rates due to cash demand, market liquidity, and transaction volumes. They advised travelers and businesses to check updated rates before conducting currency exchange transactions.

Below are the latest open market currency exchange rates in Pakistan as of January 6, 2026:
