Saudi Riyal to New Zealand Dollar
Saudi Riyal to New Zealand Dollar (SAR/NZD)
This page converts the Saudi Riyal (SAR) used in Saudi Arabia into the New Zealand Dollar (NZD) used in New Zealand. The current rate loads in your browser; type any amount into the converter above to see its value.
What moves the SAR/NZD rate
The Saudi Riyal is mainly influenced by a fixed peg to the US dollar of 3.75 riyals per dollar. The New Zealand Dollar is mainly influenced by Reserve Bank of New Zealand policy and dairy and agricultural export prices. When these forces push the two currencies in different directions, the SAR/NZD rate moves; when they move together, the rate tends to stay steadier.
How this rate is calculated
Rates are fetched from Frankfurter, which publishes the European Central Bank's daily reference rates (updated once per working day), and from ExchangeRate-API for currencies the ECB does not cover. All rates are stored against the euro, so the SAR/NZD figure is a cross rate: the euro value of NZD divided by the euro value of SAR. These are indicative mid-market reference rates and may differ from the rates offered by banks, card issuers and payment providers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert SAR to NZD?
Enter an amount in Saudi Riyal and the converter multiplies it by the latest daily SAR/NZD reference rate to show the value in New Zealand Dollar. To go the other way, NZD to SAR, divide by the same rate or use the swap button.
Where does the SAR to NZD rate come from?
Rates come from Frankfurter, which republishes daily European Central Bank reference rates, with ExchangeRate-API filling in currencies the ECB does not publish. They are cached in your browser for up to an hour.
Is this the SAR to NZD rate my bank will give me?
No. These are mid-market, indicative rates. Banks, card providers and transfer services usually add a margin or fee, so the New Zealand Dollar you actually receive is typically a little lower.
