  • Subunit: 100 fils = 1 dirham
  • Issued by: Central Bank of the UAE

Why Does the INR/AED Exchange Rate Change?

The INR/AED rate moves every trading day, driven mainly by:

  • The USD peg itself - since AED is fixed to the dollar at 3.6725, INR/AED moves almost in lockstep with INR/USD, just scaled by that fixed ratio.
  • Everything that moves INR/USD (Fed policy, crude oil prices, FII flows, India's trade deficit, RBI intervention) therefore also moves INR/AED.
  • The UAE's oil revenue and large reserves, which underpin the Central Bank of the UAE's ability to defend the peg.
  • India-UAE trade and remittances - the UAE hosts one of the largest Indian expatriate populations in the world.
  • The UAE's role as a regional trade and logistics hub, which doesn't move the peg itself but shapes the scale of the broader economic relationship.
  • RBI intervention and rupee-side factors - since the peg holds, essentially all of this pair's real movement traces back to the rupee side.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the UAE Dirham pegged to the US Dollar?

Yes. The UAE has pegged the dirham at a fixed 3.6725 AED = 1 USD since 1997. Because of that, INR/AED moves almost entirely in step with INR/USD - the INR to USD page covers most of what actually drives this rate too.

Why check INR/AED separately if it just tracks INR/USD?

Because remittances, salaries and prices in the UAE are actually paid in dirhams, not dollars - for anyone sending money to or from the UAE, converting directly in dirhams avoids an unnecessary extra mental conversion step, even though the underlying rate is dollar-driven.

Is this the bank rate or forex rate?

It's the mid-market rate, the midpoint between the buy and sell price on the global currency market, with no margin added. Banks, forex counters and card networks add their own markup on top, so the rate you're actually charged when exchanging cash or paying by card abroad will differ, usually by 1 to 4 percent in their favor.

How often is the rate updated?

Once a day, refreshed at 7:00 AM IST from the Frankfurter API.

Where do these rates come from?

Frankfurter (frankfurter.dev), a free exchange-rate API that blends official reference rates from multiple central banks rather than relying on a single source.

Can I use this rate for an actual currency conversion?

Use it as a reference for roughly what you should be getting, not as the exact rate you'll receive. An actual transaction, a bank transfer, cash exchange, or a card payment abroad, goes through your bank or exchange provider's own rate, which includes their margin and any transaction fees.
