Exchanging currency in Peshawar

Peshawar has 39 verified exchange branches listed on FindMyExchange. Rates across a single city typically vary by one to two percent, so the counter nearest you is often not the one with the best price.

The rate on this page is the national open market figure, not a price set in Peshawar — there is one published rate for the country, and this page filters branches rather than the rate. It carries the time it was last revised; read that before acting on it, because a figure is never removed for age.

Before you go

  • Bring your original CNIC or passport.
  • Call ahead for larger amounts — not every branch holds every currency in quantity.
  • Check the branch’s opening hours, especially on Fridays and public holidays.

Money exchange in Peshawar — common questions

How many currency exchange branches are there in Peshawar?

39 verified branches, run by 23 licensed exchange companies. Every one is checked against the State Bank of Pakistan register before it is listed here.

Which area of Peshawar has the most exchange counters?

Deans Trade Center, with 10 branches. Chowk Yadgar has 5, Bacha Khan International Airport has 3. Counters cluster, so comparing two or three in one area is usually quicker than travelling across the city.

Are all the big exchange companies in Peshawar?

No. Habib Qatar International Exchange Pakistan (Private) Limited has branches elsewhere in Pakistan but does not list one in Peshawar.

Which exchange companies are open on Sunday in Peshawar?

We do not publish opening hours, so we will not tell you a counter is open when we have not checked. Most exchange companies in Peshawar work Monday to Saturday, close on Sunday, and keep shorter hours on Friday afternoons; branches inside shopping centres and at airports usually run longer. 33 of the 39 branches listed here carry a phone number — call before you travel.

Is there a 24-hour currency exchange in Peshawar?

Not on this list. No branch in Peshawar that we have verified advertises a 24-hour counter. Airport counters come closest, because they open around flight schedules rather than shop hours, and Peshawar has 3 listed at or beside the airport. Outside hours, a remittance payout at a bank is usually the practical route rather than a cash exchange.

Can I exchange currency at Peshawar airport?

Yes — 3 verified counters are listed at or beside the airport in Peshawar: Pakistan Currency Exchange Company (Private) Limited. Airport rates are usually a little worse than in the city, so change what you need for the journey and the rest at a city counter.

Can I get a better rate for large amounts?

Usually, and it is worth asking rather than assuming. Counters display one rate but most will improve it on a large sum, because handling one big transaction costs them much the same as a small one. Phone two or three branches with your amount before you travel — 33 of the 39 branches here have a number listed. Anything from 500 dollars upwards needs biometric verification, so bring your original CNIC.

Where can I buy Saudi riyals for Umrah in Peshawar?

At any of the 39 counters on this page — the riyal is among the most traded currencies in Pakistan and almost every licensed company holds it. Ask a day ahead if you need a large amount in cash, because one branch may not hold it all. Today's figure is on the <a href="/sar-to-pkr">riyal to rupee page</a>, and a travel purchase needs your passport, the visa and a confirmed ticket.

What documents do I need to exchange currency?

Your original CNIC, NICOP or POC for any purchase. Biometric verification applies to Pakistani nationals from 500 dollars upwards. Buying for travel also needs your passport, the visa where one applies and a confirmed ticket, with supporting documents from 1,000 dollars upwards. Selling is lighter: a CNIC is normally enough.

Can someone else exchange money on my behalf?

Not for a purchase in your name. The counter records the buyer’s own CNIC and biometric verification, so the person at the window has to be the person buying. Selling foreign currency is simpler and a family member can usually do it on their own CNIC — but the transaction is then recorded as theirs, not yours.

How do I check an exchange company is licensed?

The State Bank of Pakistan publishes the register of licensed exchange companies, and every company on this site is checked against it before it is listed, including the 7 bank-owned subsidiaries operating in Peshawar. Money handed to a counter that is not on the register has no protection at all. <a href="/state-bank-of-pakistan">What an SBP licence means</a>.
