The Saudi riyal (SAR) is the official currency of Saudi Arabia, issued by the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) and pegged to the US dollar at a fixed rate since 1986. The price shown here is the Tehran free-market rate set by exchange offices, which differs from any official or NIMA rate the Iranian Central Bank might publish. Iranians look up the riyal mainly to budget for Hajj and Umrah pilgrimage expenses and for the growing trade and travel exchanges between the two countries.

Due to international sanctions, Iran's financial system operates independently from global networks like SWIFT and Visa. This isolation means platforms such as Google and XE.com can only access Iran's Central Bank official SAR/IRR rates, which significantly differ from real-world values. Pashizi provides authentic free-market exchange rates based on actual Iranian currency transactions, giving you accurate SAR to IRR conversion rates that reflect true market conditions rather than government-controlled figures.

Iranians traveling to Mecca and Medina for Hajj or Umrah need Saudi riyals to cover accommodation, transport, and daily expenses inside Saudi Arabia. Because pilgrimage quotas send large groups of Iranian pilgrims each year, riyal demand tends to be seasonal, tied to the Hajj and Umrah calendar rather than daily trade flows. This is one of the main non-trade reasons Iranians track the riyal rate.
Yes, the Saudi riyal has been fixed to the US dollar at a rate of 3.75 riyals per dollar since 1986. Because of this peg, the riyal's value against other currencies, including the Iranian rial, moves in step with the dollar rather than fluctuating independently. This is why Tehran exchange offices calculate the riyal rate directly from the dollar rate.
Because the riyal is pegged to the dollar at a fixed rate, exchange offices in Tehran typically derive the riyal's toman price by dividing the free-market USD/IRR rate by 3.75. This means the riyal's rial price moves whenever the free-market dollar rate moves, even though the riyal itself hasn't changed against the dollar.
