Source: State Bank of Pakistan, exchange rates for mark-to-market revaluation (ready), 11/11/2026.
Official reference rates for comparison and calculations. Banks, exchange offices and brokers apply their own buying and selling rates and fees. The table refreshes automatically when the source publishes new rates.
OMR and PKR: where the official rate comes from
ECB reference rate of 2026-11-11. Banks and brokers apply their own rates and fees.
The rates card above shows State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) exchange rates for mark-to-market revaluation: the "ready" rate in rupees per unit for many currencies, including the Omani rial, with the SBP date and a link to the SBP page. It also shows SBP's weighted average customer exchange rate for the US dollar (bid and offer), a recent trend line for major currencies against the rupee, and a converter that includes PKR. The separate converter just above works on European Central Bank (ECB) euro reference rates, between the currencies the ECB covers; it has no PKR or OMR, so use the rates card for rupee amounts.
SBP publishes these rates every working day so that authorised dealers can revalue their books. To see an amount in rupees, use the converter in the rates card and choose OMR and PKR. Banks and exchange offices quote their own buy and sell rates, so the amount you actually receive can differ.
A reference rate is a published benchmark. It is not a price at which a bank or exchange office will sell you rials. Official rates are not published on weekends and public holidays, so on those days the card keeps the last working day's rate and date. The card refreshes by itself when SBP publishes.

How to work out the OMR amount in rupees
- Find the Omani rial (OMR) row in the rates card: it shows the SBP rate in rupees per rial, with the SBP date.
- Or use the converter in the card: enter the amount, choose OMR as "from" and PKR as "to".
- Remember that banks, exchange companies and remittance apps apply their own rates and fees on top.
- For other currencies, see the exchange rates section.
The Omani rial is divided into baisa, not cents, and it is one of the highest-valued currency units in the world. Even a small change in the OMR/PKR rate changes the rupee result noticeably on large amounts, such as a year of remittances or a university fee.
Why bank and exchange-office rates differ
The rate you get from a bank, an exchange company or a money transfer service in Oman or Pakistan will almost always differ from the reference rate.
| Rate type | What it is | Why it differs |
|---|---|---|
| Official reference rate | Benchmark from the named feed | No margin, published once per business day |
| Bank buy/sell rate | Rate a bank offers for cash or transfers | Includes the bank's spread (the gap between its buy and sell price) |
| Exchange-office rate | Rate for cash at a counter | Spread, cash handling costs, local supply of rials |
| Remittance service rate | Rate applied to a transfer to Pakistan | Spread, transfer fees, sometimes a fixed charge on top |
When comparing offers, look at the total number of rupees received after all fees, not only the quoted rate. A provider with a better rate can charge a higher fee, and the reverse.
What moves the Omani rial
The peg to the US dollar
The Central Bank of Oman keeps the rial pegged to the US dollar at a fixed rate. Because of this, the OMR barely moves against the dollar. Changes in OMR/PKR come almost entirely from changes in the dollar against the rupee. If you follow the US dollar to PKR rate, you see most of what drives the rial against the rupee.
Central Bank of Oman policy
To protect the peg, the Central Bank of Oman generally keeps its interest rates in line with US rates. Its policy matters more for the stability of the peg than for daily moves. The peg is supported by Oman's foreign reserves. A peg can come under pressure if reserves fall sharply, though this is a background risk rather than a daily factor.
Oil, gas and capital flows
Oman's economy depends heavily on oil and gas exports, which bring in dollars. Higher energy prices strengthen Oman's finances and reserves. Lower prices can widen the budget deficit and increase borrowing. These flows affect confidence in the peg rather than the rate itself. For background on energy markets, see energies.
The rupee side
The PKR side moves with Pakistan's balance of payments, inflation, reserves and State Bank of Pakistan policy. The latest SBP decision: SBP policy rate raised by 50 bps to 12% with effect from 27.10.2026 (MPC). More on this is in SBP rates and economy and SBP exchange rates.
Links between Oman and Pakistan
- Remittances. A large Pakistani workforce lives in Oman, and money sent home is a major reason people check the OMR rate.
- Trade. The countries trade across the Arabian Sea, including food products, textiles and fuel.
- Travel. Flights connect Muscat with several Pakistani cities for work, family visits and tourism.
- Students and families. Some families in Oman pay school or university fees in Pakistan, and the reverse.
- History. Gwadar was once under Omani rule, and ties between Balochistan and Oman remain close.
For other Gulf currencies, compare the Saudi riyal, UAE dirham, Qatari riyal, Kuwaiti dinar and Bahraini dinar.
Frequent questions
Where can I find the official Omani rial rate?
The rates card at the top shows the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) rate for the Omani rial in rupees, with the SBP date and a link to the SBP page.
Why is my bank's OMR rate different?
Banks and exchange offices add a spread and sometimes fees. The reference rate is a benchmark without those costs.
Does the Omani rial change much against the rupee?
The rial is pegged to the US dollar, so its moves against the rupee mostly follow USD/PKR.
Can I convert PKR to OMR here?
Yes, with the converter in the rates card at the top, which uses SBP rates and includes PKR and OMR. The separate converter further down works only between the ECB currencies, and neither PKR nor OMR is among them.
Is the official rate the rate I will get for a transfer?
No. It is a reference figure for comparison. The rate for a transfer is set by your bank or remittance provider. Check their quote and fees before sending.
