How much does it really cost to live, work, or travel in ? Here's what to expect for daily expenses and expat living.
Traveling to Pakistan offers an enticing blend of culture, cuisine, and hospitality, all at an appealing cost. For a one-week mid-range stay, travelers can expect to budget approximately PKR 70,000 to PKR 100,000 ($400 - $564). This amount should comfortably cover essential expenses and allow for some leisure activities. Here's a quick look at typical daily expenses you'll encounter in this vibrant country:
Overall, Pakistan is considered a "cheap" country to visit compared to the United States and the United Kingdom, where daily expenses can significantly escalate. For instance, a similar mid-range meal in the U.S. may cost around $20, while in the UK, a coffee can run approx. £3.50 ($4.50). This makes your vacation in Pakistan not just culturally enriching, but also easy on the wallet.
For expats relocating to Pakistan, understanding the local cost of living can help in budgeting appropriately. Monthly living costs in major cities like Karachi and Lahore generally range between PKR 80,000 to PKR 150,000 ($450 - $850), depending on lifestyle choices and accommodation preferences. Essentials such as utilities and groceries are relatively affordable, but costs may vary based on your location.
When it comes to banking, it's advisable to have a local bank account for convenience with transactions. Most urban establishments accept card payments, but having cash on hand for smaller vendors and markets is crucial since many do not accept cards. For sending and receiving money internationally, options like Wise or OFX can offer better exchange rates and lower transaction fees than traditional banks. While local exchanges can be convenient, using online transfer services often yields more favorable results, ultimately saving you money in your international transactions.
