Its exchange-rates page lists buying and selling rates for about 20 currencies, separately for bank notes and transfers, with a time stamp. ## ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/eg.png) Latest board, read 13 Nov 2026, 19:37 Egypt time (1h ago) Bank’s own last-updated stamp: **13-11-2026 14:15:51** (as printed on its page, local time). Board shown: **Transfer buy / sell**. Banks outside the Gulf publish several boards for the same currency — counter notes, drafts, transfers, cards — and this page shows one of them, the same one for every bank in Egypt so the comparison is like for like. The others are on the bank’s own page. | Currency | Bank buys at | Bank sells at | Mid | Spread | Official 2026-11-12 | Mid vs official | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/us.png)`USD` | 53.3900 | 53.4900 | 53.4400 | 0.19% | 53.5047 | -0.12% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/eu.png)`EUR` | 58.9799 | 59.2241 | 59.1020 | 0.41% | 59.3474 | -0.41% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/gb.png)`GBP` | 70.5816 | 70.8582 | 70.7199 | 0.39% | 71.0061 | -0.40% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/in.png)`INR` | 0.5663 | 0.5688 | 0.5675 | 0.43% | — | — | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/sa.png)`SAR` | 14.1524 | 14.2446 | 14.1985 | 0.65% | 14.2569 | -0.41% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/qa.png)`QAR` | 13.8345 | 14.6769 | 14.2557 | 5.91% | 14.6910 | -2.96% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/kw.png)`KWD` | 169.49 | 173.87 | 171.68 | 2.55% | 173.41 | -1.00% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/om.png)`OMR` | 136.78 | 138.93 | 137.85 | 1.56% | 138.98 | -0.81% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/bh.png)`BHD` | 139.56 | 141.88 | 140.72 | 1.65% | 141.92 | -0.85% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/jp.png)`JPY` | 0.3333 | 0.3350 | 0.3342 | 0.51% | 0.3351 | -0.28% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/cn.png)`CNY` | 7.9972 | 8.0226 | 8.0099 | 0.32% | 8.0240 | -0.18% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/ch.png)`CHF` | 63.7036 | 64.0906 | 63.8971 | 0.61% | 64.2931 | -0.62% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/ca.png)`CAD` | 37.4142 | 37.5368 | 37.4755 | 0.33% | 37.5630 | -0.23% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/au.png)`AUD` | 36.2251 | 36.4534 | 36.3393 | 0.63% | 36.5437 | -0.56% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/ae.png)`AED` | 14.5221 | 14.5662 | 14.5441 | 0.30% | 14.5682 | -0.17% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/dk.png)`DKK` | 7.8893 | 7.9232 | 7.9062 | 0.43% | 7.9389 | -0.41% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/jo.png)`JOD` | 74.8283 | 75.5508 | 75.1896 | 0.96% | 75.5716 | -0.51% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/no.png)`NOK` | 5.5752 | 5.6099 | 5.5926 | 0.62% | 5.6046 | -0.21% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/se.png)`SEK` | 5.3110 | 5.3422 | 5.3266 | 0.58% | 5.3730 | -0.86% | All values are EGP per 1 unit of the currency.

Every price is EGP per 1 unit of `ccy`. | | `buy` | What the bank pays you in EGP for one unit of foreign currency. | | `sell` | What the bank charges you in EGP for one unit — the rate for sending money abroad. | | `mid`, `spread_pct` | Midpoint of buy and sell; spread = (sell − buy) ÷ mid, in percent. | | `official`, `vs_official_pct` | The Central Bank of Egypt rate for the same currency and how far the bank’s mid sits from it. | | `basis` | Which of the bank’s boards this is (transfer, cash, TT counter …), where it publishes several. | | `captured_at` | When AllRatesToday read the bank’s page (UTC).

The Central Bank of Egypt official rate is what accounting, tax and customs rules name, but it is not what a customer pays at the counter or in an app. Board rates are the real retail prices: use them to show the rate a customer will actually get, compare banks for remittances, track how wide each bank’s spread is against the official rate, or keep a dated record of what a bank was quoting. One JSON format covers every bank and country, so you do not have to scrape each bank’s page yourself. ## Start calling the Banque Misr board API Free key, JSON responses, hourly board captures with the official rate alongside.

JSON needs an API key: `https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/bank-rates/eg/banquemisr`. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is the Banque Misr rate the official Egypt exchange rate? No. Banque Misr sets its own buying and selling rates and changes them through the day. The official rate is published once per business day by the Central Bank of Egypt; it is shown in the Official column and is the figure accounting, tax and customs rules refer to. ### Which Banque Misr rate applies when I send money abroad? The sell rate: you are buying foreign currency from the bank. When you convert foreign currency into EGP, the buy rate applies. Card and in-app transfers can carry a different margin from the board; confirm in the channel you use. ### How current is this table? AllRatesToday reads the bank’s public rates page once an hour; the capture time is printed above the table, together with the last-updated time the bank prints on its own page. Rates may have changed since. ### Do you have historical Banque Misr rates? Yes, from 13 Nov 2026 onwards, one board per day. One day: /api/v1/bank-rates/eg/banquemisr?date=YYYY-MM-DD (every plan). A range: /api/v1/bank-rates/eg/banquemisr/history?ccy=USD (paid plans). ## Compare [All Egypt banks side by sideBest buy and sell per currency](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/eg/) [Central Bank of EgyptOfficial rate, daily, with history](https://allratestoday.com/central-bank-rates-api/cbe/)
