Since a significant portion of the Pakistani diaspora resides in Middle Eastern countries, the exchange rates of PKR against AED and SAR are closely monitored for remittances and business transactions.

The Middle East region has been serving as the primary source of energy imports and foreign remittances.

The Pakistani diaspora, which has around 11.5 million (as of November 2024) in the Middle East, represents the entire spectrum of Pakistani society, from business leaders, entrepreneurs, and white and blue-collar workers to bankers and chartered accountants.

In June 2025, remittances from the Middle East played a dominant role in supporting Pakistan’s economy, accounting for approximately 51% of total inflows.

Saudi Arabia retained its position as the top contributor, with remittances soaring to $832.17m with an impressive 24% increase year-on-year.

Following closely, UAE emerged as the second-largest source as it sent $717.2m.
