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

- On 22 Oct 2026 the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's indicative rate was 81.31 rupees for 1 Malaysian Ringgit. It is a reference rate; banks buy MYR below it and sell above it.
- Is the rupee getting stronger or weaker against the Malaysian Ringgit?
- Over the past year the rate has gone from 71.67 to 81.31, so the rupee is 13.4% weaker against the Malaysian Ringgit. Over the last 52 weeks it ranged from 71.67 to 85.20.

- Since May 2010, the highest indicative rate was 85.64 on 27 Jan 2023 and the lowest was 31.32 on 26 Aug 2015.
- Why is my bank's MYR rate different?
- Banks quote a buying rate (what they pay you for MYR) 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.
