Egypt — EGP

Send Money from the UAE to Egypt

The Egyptian pound moves fast — compare live AED to EGP rates from licensed UAE providers and see exactly how much reaches your family before you send.

Rates last verified: 17 Jul 2026

Sending dirhams home to Egypt is one of the most common transfers made from the UAE, and with the Egyptian pound moving so much lately, the rate you pick makes a real difference to what your family actually receives. A gap of even ten or twenty piastres per dirham adds up fast when you're sending a full month's support.

This page compares live AED to EGP rates from licensed UAE providers side by side. Instead of showing the headline exchange rate alone, we work out the fees too and show the real amount that lands in Egypt — so a provider that advertises a great rate but charges a heavy fee won't fool you.

For most people, the fastest options are exchange houses like LuLu and Al Ansari, which often deliver same day to Egyptian bank accounts and cash-pickup points, usually with no transfer fee. Digital services such as Wise and Remitly can be slightly cheaper on the rate and deliver straight to a bank account or InstaPay, though delivery time varies.

Before you send, have your recipient's details ready — a bank account number, a wallet, or the branch where they'll collect cash. Double-check the rate on the provider's own app the moment you transfer, because rates move through the day. Set the amount below, pick Egypt, and you'll see today's ranking updated for the current market.
