US Dollar to PKR – 2 April 2026

Today, the US Dollar (USD) to Pakistani Rupee (PKR) is showing active movement in both the open market and interbank transactions. In the open market, the buying rate is Rs. 279 while the selling rate is Rs. 280.15. At the interbank, the bank buying stands at Rs. 279.05 and bank selling at Rs. 279.55.
The USD is continuing to strengthen against the PKR, influencing the import sector as international trade transactions are adjusting to higher dollar costs. Businesses engaged in importing machinery, electronics, and raw materials are responding to the rate fluctuations by recalculating operational budgets. Additionally, remittances from overseas Pakistanis are becoming more valuable, providing a steady inflow to support the local economy.
This currency movement is highlighting the need for businesses to plan cash flows carefully, while exporters are finding modest advantage in competitive pricing abroad due to the stronger USD.
