Overview
Pakistan's exchange rate stood at 322.99 in 2025, a rise of +44.41 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 322.99 by 2025. Pakistan ranked 49th globally.
Pakistan's exchange rate has exhibited a significant decline over the past six and a half decades, from an all-time low of 4.76 in 1971 to an all-time high of 322.99 in 2025. This represents a roughly 68-fold increase, underscoring the country's economic challenges. In comparison, Armenia's exchange rate has been even more depreciated, standing at 351.57 in 2025. Pakistan's exchange rate has been on a persistent downward trend since 1960, with a few periods of relative stability. The current rate is a far cry from the country's early years of independence, when a stable exchange rate was a hallmark of economic growth. The trend is expected to continue unless Pakistan can implement effective monetary and fiscal policies to stabilize its economy and attract foreign investment, which could potentially lead to a revaluation of the currency.
