Pakistani rupee (PKR) to British pound (GBP) exchange rate chart and trend analysis based on real data sourced directly from UK currency suppliers
Our British pound to Pakistani rupee chart plots the actual Pakistani rupee buyback rates offered by our panel of UK currency providers at the end of each day, so you can see the historical performance of the Pakistani rupee against the pound and monitor fluctuations in the exchange rate over time.
This page shows the Pakistani rupee to pound exchange rate, not the Pakistani rupee buyback rate advertised in our Pakistani rupee buyback comparisons. Both rates are the same, but the buyback rate is displayed in a different format due to the way UK currency suppliers advertise their buyback rates. Learn more

Exchange rates can be displayed in different ways depending on the context. There's the Pakistani rupee to pound exchange rate, and the Pakistani rupee buyback rate. The two are in fact the same; they are just displayed differently.
The Pakistani rupee to pound exchange rate corresponds to the value of one Pakistani rupee in British pounds. For example, a Pakistani rupee to pound rate of 0.0037 means one Pakistani rupee is worth 0.0037 pounds.
In contrast, the Pakistani rupee buyback rate corresponds to the amount of Pakistani rupees you'd have to exchange to get one pound. For example, a Pakistani rupee buyback rate of 270 means you'd have to exchange 270 Pakistani rupees to get one pound.
UK currency suppliers prefer to show the Pakistani rupee buyback rate instead of the Pakistani rupee to pound exchange rate, so we follow the same format in our Pakistani rupee comparisons. However, on this page, we use the Pakistani rupee to pound exchange rate since this is what the data is intended to show.
The two rates are interchangeable: to convert the Pakistani rupee buyback rate into the actual Pakistani rupee to pound rate, just divide 1 by the Pakistani rupee buyback rate, e.g.: 1 / 270 = 0.0037.
