Sending money from Saudi Arabia to Nepal: SAR to NPR
Many Nepali workers in the Gulf, including Saudi Arabia, send money home to support their families, and remittances are a major part of Nepal's economy. If you send money from Saudi Arabia to Nepal, comparing the SAR to NPR rate across providers before each transfer can put more rupees in your family's hands. This page shows the rates reported for each remittance app and bank service.
The Nepalese rupee is pegged to the Indian rupee at a fixed rate, so the SAR to NPR rate tends to move together with the SAR to INR rate, along with the USD to INR movement behind it. As with every corridor, each provider adds its own margin, so the final rate you are offered can differ between apps even on the same day.
Before you send money to Nepal
- Compare the amount received, not just the rate: multiply the riyal amount by the rate, then subtract any service fee.
- Check how the money is delivered (bank account, wallet or cash pickup) and the estimated delivery time.
- Look at the minimum and maximum limits per transfer and per month.
- Use only providers licensed in Saudi Arabia; the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) supervises money transfer services in the Kingdom.
- Confirm the final rate on the provider's own confirmation screen, because rates can change several times a day.

How do I send money from Saudi Arabia to Nepal?
You can send money from Saudi Arabia to Nepal through bank transfers, digital wallets, or dedicated remittance apps such as Enjaz, STC Pay, D360, and others. Compare their current rates on this page, then complete your transfer directly through your chosen provider's app or branch.
Are the rates on RiyalRate.com official?
No. Rates on RiyalRate.com are user-reported by the community and are for reference only. They may not reflect the exact rate a remittance center offers at the moment of your transaction. Always confirm the current rate directly with the provider before sending money.
How is the SAR to NPR rate decided?
The Saudi riyal is pegged to the US dollar at 3.75, so the SAR to NPR rate mainly follows the USD to NPR market rate. Each remittance provider then adds its own margin and may charge a separate fee, which is why the rate you are offered differs between providers.
How do recipients in Nepal receive the money?
Depending on the provider, money sent to Nepal can be paid into a bank account, a mobile wallet such as eSewa or Khalti, or collected as cash through a licensed payout partner. Not every provider supports every option, so check the payout methods in the app before you send.
Why does the SAR to NPR rate move with the Indian rupee?
The Nepalese rupee is pegged to the Indian rupee, so changes in the value of the Indian rupee against the US dollar also affect the Nepalese rupee. Since the riyal is pegged to the dollar, the SAR to NPR rate tends to follow the SAR to INR rate, with differences coming from each provider's own margin.
What do the colours next to "Updated" mean?

A rate reported less than 24 hours ago is shown in green (dark green for the newest, lighter as it ages), one that is 1 to 3 days old is light green and yellow, over 3 days is orange, over 4 days is red, and a rate older than 7 days is greyed out.
