Questions about currency rates in Iraq

What is the euro rate in Iraq today?

The euro is about 1,833 Iraqi dinars at the parallel-market rate (updated 20 September 2026), computed from the euro's dollar rate and the market dollar (1,598 dinars).

What is the Turkish lira in Iraqi dinars?

The lira is about 33 dinars at the parallel rate. It moves a lot against the dollar, so the figure changes daily.

What are the UAE dirham and Saudi riyal in dinars?

The dirham is about 435 dinars and the riyal about 426 dinars at the parallel rate. Both are pegged to the dollar, so they track the dollar rate directly.

What are the Kuwaiti and Jordanian dinars in Iraqi dinars?

The Kuwaiti dinar is about 5,166 Iraqi dinars and the Jordanian dinar about 2,253, at the parallel rate.

Why does a money changer quote something different?

The figure here is a conversion through the dollar at the parallel rate; a changer adds a margin that varies by currency and amount, and prices thinly traded currencies with a wider spread.

How currency rates in Iraq are worked out

There is no deep market for the euro or the lira in Baghdad; money changers price the dollar and everything else derives from it. So each currency's dollar rate comes from a daily global source and is multiplied by the parallel-market dollar rate to give the dinar figure. It is a conversion estimate, not a list price at any one changer, who add a margin that varies by currency and amount.

The official column uses the Central Bank of Iraq rate (1,310 dinars per dollar) and applies to official bank transactions only. The gap between the two columns is the dollar gap itself.

Dollar cross rates update once a day at the source; the parallel dollar rate every few hours from the dollar page. The date at the top is the source's last update.
