Frequently Asked Questions

What is the symbol for Saudi Riyal?

The Saudi Riyal uses the symbol "﷼" (Arabic Riyal symbol) and is also commonly abbreviated as "SR" or "SAR" (international code). In writing, it's typically shown as "ر.س" in Arabic or placed after the amount in English (e.g., 100 ر.س or 100 SR).

Why is the SAR to USD rate fixed?

The Saudi Riyal has been pegged to the US Dollar at a fixed rate of 3.75 SAR = 1 USD since 1986. This policy, maintained by the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (SAMA), provides economic stability, reduces currency volatility, and supports Saudi Arabia's oil exports which are priced in USD. The fixed rate helps maintain predictable trade and investment conditions.

Where can I exchange SAR to USD in Saudi Arabia?

Major banks (Al Rajhi Bank, National Commercial Bank, Samba Financial Group), authorized exchange houses ("money changers"), and international airport counters (King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah) offer SAR to USD exchange. Due to the fixed rate, exchange rates are consistent across providers, though service fees may vary.

Is USD widely accepted in Saudi Arabia?

While the Saudi Riyal is the official currency, US Dollars are widely accepted in major tourist areas, international hotels, and large retail establishments in cities like Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam. However, smaller businesses, local markets, and rural areas typically only accept SAR. It's advisable to carry SAR for daily transactions, especially in more traditional or remote locations.

What are the common denominations of Saudi Riyal?

Saudi Riyal banknotes come in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, and 500 SAR. Coins are available in 5, 10, 25, 50 halalas (1 riyal = 100 halalas) and 1 riyal. Halala coins are commonly used for small transactions, while 1 SAR coins are widely used in vending machines and for public transportation.
