It's important to note that exchange rates also fluctuate frequently due to market conditions. Additionally, banks and foreign exchange providers often apply a margin to the exchange rate, resulting in a less favorable rate for customers compared to the mid-market rate. For more competitive rates, you might consider using a specialized currency exchange service like OFX or platforms that offer rates closer to the mid-market rate.

The OFX Loonie to Pakistani rupee comparison table above makes it easy to compare the Total Fees (both variable and fixed) you are being charged by OFX and other foreign exchange providers against the latest CAD-PKR mid-rate (see Market Data below ) and the possible savings of using various providers.
OFX has a 20-year history and is one of the largest foreign exchange specialists in the world. It offers a complete foreign exchange solution, including discounted money transfers, currency hedging tools, recurring transfers, a multi-currency account for online sellers and much more.
OFX grew from the idea that there had to be a better, fairer way to move money around the world. That was over 20 years ago, and since then over 1 million customers have trusted OFX with transfers in 50+ currencies to over 170 countries.
OFX don’t just offer great rates, they believe real help from real people counts. That’s why their clients get the best of both worlds – a seamless digital platform, combined with 24/7 phone access to currency experts.
When it comes to moving money, peace of mind is important. OFX is monitored by over 50 regulators globally and work within a network of carefully selected banking partners. So whether you are sending money to friends and family abroad, or doing business across borders, OFX can get your money where it needs to go. Fast, simple, secure.
Using OFX for money transfers offers the benefit of lower fees and competitive exchange rates compared to traditional banks, making international transactions more cost-effective.
Additionally, OFX provides 24/7 customer support, a range of transfer options including spot and forward contracts, and a user-friendly online platform, enhancing convenience and flexibility for global financial transactions.
OFX offers exchange rates that beat the banks, and are close or equal to the rates offered by the industry’s lowest-cost services.
When you register via our OFX 0.5% exclusive offer for BER users the cost of sending, for example, 5,000 US dollars to Australia equates to 0.5 percent of the transferred amount, or roughly US$25. You’d pay the same 0.5 percent for the same amount to be sent to Europe and around 1 percent if sending to India. This compares with 4–7 percent with the banks.
For other currency routes we looked at (routes involving AUD, INR, GBP, EUR, SGD and USD), the average cost of an international payment with OFX was 0.6 percent of the transferred amount. This is exceptional if compared with banks but can be a little more expensive than what is charged by the industry’s lowest-cost services, although such services do not offer the same benefits and customer service as OFX.

The recent exchange rate forecasts for the CAD to PKR highlight a dynamic interplay between commodity prices and economic policies. Analysts note that the Canadian dollar (CAD), also known as the "loonie," closely follows oil price movements due to Canada's status as a significant oil exporter. Currently, CAD has reached 90-day highs around 204.0 PKR, marking a 3.4% increase from its three-month average of 197.3 PKR. This rise places the CAD within a relatively stable trading range of 191.4 to 204.0 PKR. However, fluctuations remain a consideration, particularly given that oil prices have dipped to 90-day lows of approximately 61.29 USD, about 13.2% below the three-month average of 70.61 USD.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Canadian dollar to Pakistani rupee:
Generally speaking, if you are buying Pakistani rupee with Canadian dollar, then it's better for the CAD/PKR exchange rate to be higher.
However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees 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.

There is no definitive answer to this question as the cost of living in Pakistan can vary greatly depending on the individual's lifestyle and location. However, according to The Economist's Worldwide Cost of Living Survey, Pakistan is the 47th most expensive country in which to live.
Expat life in Pakistan can be incredible rewarding. The country has a rich culture and history, and the people are warm and welcoming. There are many opportunities to get involved in the community, and the cost of living is relatively low. However, there are also some challenges that come with living in Pakistan. The infrastructure can be challenging, and the political situation is unstable. There is also a high risk of crime and terrorism.
The legal system in Pakistan is based on English common law, with some influences from Sharia law. Sharia law is used in personal law cases relating to marriage, divorce, inheritance, and custody. There are some restrictions on freedom of speech and the press. Blasphemy is a criminal offense, and there have been instances of mob violence against those accused of blasphemy. There have also been reports of forced conversion to Islam, especially of Hindu and Christian girls. Foreign nationals should be aware of these laws and respected them.
