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 the primary source of energy imports and foreign remittances.

The Pakistani diaspora, which has around 4.5 million members 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.

The Gulf countries including the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (25%) and the United Arab Emirates (20%) have contributed about 54% to Pakistan’s remittances in the four months of FY25.
