About AED to LKR
The UAE Dirham (AED) is the currency of the United Arab Emirates. The rate on this page is the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's daily indicative rate: the number of Sri Lankan rupees for 1 AED, published once each business day. When the number rises, the rupee has weakened against the UAE Dirham; when it falls, the rupee has strengthened.

- Is the rupee getting stronger or weaker against the UAE Dirham?
- Over the past year the rate has gone from 82.88 to 90.49, so the rupee is 9.2% weaker against the UAE Dirham. Over the last 52 weeks it ranged from 82.84 to 91.92.

- Since May 2010, the highest indicative rate was 99.31 on 9 May 2022 and the lowest was 29.80 on 14 Jun 2011.
- Why is my bank's AED rate different?
- Banks quote a buying rate (what they pay you for AED) and a selling rate (what they charge you) either side of the indicative rate, and the gap differs by bank and by whether it is a telegraphic transfer, cash or a draft. Check the bank's own rates before you transact.
