About CAD to LKR
The Canadian Dollar (CAD) is the currency of Canada. The rate on this page is the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's daily indicative rate: the number of Sri Lankan rupees for 1 CAD, published once each business day. When the number rises, the rupee has weakened against the Canadian Dollar; when it falls, the rupee has strengthened.
Common questions

- On 22 Oct 2026 the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's indicative rate was 236.37 rupees for 1 Canadian Dollar. It is a reference rate; banks buy CAD below it and sell above it.
- Is the rupee getting stronger or weaker against the Canadian Dollar?
- Over the past year the rate has gone from 216.41 to 236.37, so the rupee is 9.2% weaker against the Canadian Dollar. Over the last 52 weeks it ranged from 215.93 to 244.15.

- Since May 2010, the highest indicative rate was 287.25 on 8 Jun 2022 and the lowest was 98.58 on 20 Jan 2016.
- Why is my bank's CAD rate different?
- Banks quote a buying rate (what they pay you for CAD) 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.
