Every year, millions of Pakistanis working in Saudi Arabia remit large portions of their income back to the homeland.
These remittances are vital financial lifelines, enabling families to cover daily expenses, fund education, and stimulate local economies.
This economic reliance deepens the financial ties between the two countries.
Additionally, Saudi Arabia is a major hub for Pakistani workers seeking employment. Upon returning, many convert Saudi Riyals to Pakistani Rupees (PKR), highlighting the active currency exchange between the nations.
Many Pakistani workers in Saudi Arabia send remittances home, significantly boosting Pakistan’s economy.
