About AUD to LKR
The Australian Dollar (AUD) is the currency of Australia. The rate on this page is the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's daily indicative rate: the number of Sri Lankan rupees for 1 AUD, published once each business day. When the number rises, the rupee has weakened against the Australian Dollar; when it falls, the rupee has strengthened.
Common questions
- What is the AUD to LKR rate today?
- On 22 Oct 2026 the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's indicative rate was 232.90 rupees for 1 Australian Dollar. It is a reference rate; banks buy AUD below it and sell above it.
- Is the rupee getting stronger or weaker against the Australian Dollar?
- Over the past year the rate has gone from 196.84 to 232.90, so the rupee is 18.3% weaker against the Australian Dollar. Over the last 52 weeks it ranged from 196.57 to 241.54.
- What is the highest AUD to LKR rate?
- Since May 2010, the highest indicative rate was 261.54 on 3 Jun 2022 and the lowest was 94.04 on 4 Sept 2015.
- Why is my bank's AUD rate different?
- Banks quote a buying rate (what they pay you for AUD) 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.
