Paying or sending pesos abroad in AED
For tuition, rent or a family member abroad, a bank wire or a remittance app converts your pesos at its own rate. Ask for the AED amount that will arrive and compare it with the official figure above: ₱20,000 should land close to 1,170.65 AED before fees. Next, for money coming the other way: AED to PHP, with what remittance firms charge.
Cash for a trip: buy at a bank or a BSP-registered money changer, listed by town on the remittance and money changer offices page. For tax, a business converts AED amounts at the BSP rate on the transaction day (BIR RMC 12-2024).
PHP to AED questions
How much is ₱5,000 in AED?
₱5,000 ÷ ₱17.0845 = 292.66 AED at the 2 Oct 2026 rate; ₱25,000 is 1,463.31 AED. A bank or money changer gives fewer UAE dirhams, because its selling rate includes a spread.
Where can I buy AED in the Philippines?
Neither BPI nor Metrobank posts a selling rate for the UAE dirham, so ask your bank or a BSP-registered money changer whether they stock it. Many travellers carry US dollars and convert on arrival instead.
Is the peso stronger or weaker against the UAE dirham than three months ago?
Weaker. On 3 Jul 2026, ₱1,000 bought 59.63 AED; on 2 Oct 2026 it buys 58.53 AED.
Which AED rate does the BIR use for tax?
Under RMC 12-2024, AED transactions are converted straight to pesos at the BSP rate on the transaction day; the old practice of converting through the US dollar first is superseded.
