Provider	Amounts	Rate	Cost

Exchange rates available for foreign transfers and currency exchange always contain either a rate margin from the Latest GBP to AED Exchange Rate (shown above) or a transaction fee and often both!

How to get a good GBP to AED Exchange Rate

There are two important ways to save on Foreign Exchange, the first is minimising unnecessary or excessive costs and fees, and the other is to transact when the exchange rate is in your favour.

Reduce Excessive costs and fees

All foreign exchange providers charge a fee for providing their service and this fee is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).

The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.

Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.

Will the Pound Sterling rise against the United Arab Emirates dirham?

It is almost impossible to predict what an exchange rate will do in the future, the best approach is to monitor the currency markets and transact when an exchange rate moves in your favour.

To help with this you can add GBP/AED to your BestExchangeRates My Rates Watchlist to track and benefit from currency movements.
