How to use it
- Enter an amount in USD. The result in EGP updates as you type.
- Use the swap button to convert the other way.
- Check the rate date under the result, and the quick-reference table for common amounts.
The formula
EGP = USD × Rate(USD → EGP)
To go back, divide by the same rate: USD = EGP ÷ Rate.
About USD to EGP
The Egyptian pound is not pegged and has gone through several large adjustments in recent years, so check the rate date every time.
Egypt is one of the largest remittance-receiving countries in the world. Compare providers’ rates carefully — the margin on this corridor can be significant.
The pound is divided into 100 piastres, so amounts use two decimals.
Assumptions
- The rate is a mid-market reference rate, not a bank’s buy or sell price.
- Rates are published once per working day and cached on your device for up to an hour.
Common mistakes
- Expecting a bank or exchange shop to give you the reference rate exactly.
- Forgetting to check the publication date on weekends and public holidays.
Questions
Why does the EGP rate change so much?
The pound floats, and its value responds to economic conditions and central-bank policy. Large moves can happen in a short time.
Is the rate here the bank rate in Egypt?
No. It is a reference rate; banks and exchange companies set their own buy and sell prices.
