Buying vs selling rate

When you change Kuwaiti dinars into rupees, the bank buys them from you — use the buying rate. When you buy Kuwaiti dinars with rupees, for travel, study or a visa fee, you pay the selling rate. Today the gap is Rs 1.95 per 1 KWD (0.40%).

Sending money from Kuwait

NRB's rate is the benchmark. Banks, money-transfer companies and remittance apps set their own rate, usually a little below NRB's buying rate, and some add a fee, so compare the total rupees your family receives. Use a licensed channel: informal hundi transfers are illegal in Nepal.

About the rate

The Nepali rupee is pegged to the Indian rupee, so its rate against the Kuwaiti Dinar largely follows how the Indian rupee moves against it. Rates are NRB's indicative reference rates from nrb.org.np; banks quote their own counter rates around them.
