The BTC to AED rate in numbers

One Bitcoin currently costs AED 298,612 (UAE dirham). The calculation uses 3.67 AED per US dollar. That makes 1 sat worth 0.00299 AED, and 1 AED buys about 334.88 sats.

The other way round: 0.001 BTC costs AED 298.61, 0.01 BTC costs AED 2,986, 0.1 BTC costs AED 29,861. The round amounts AED 200 and AED 2,000 give 66,977 and 669,765 sats. Fees and spread not included.

How the BTC/USD price has moved: −3.9% over 24 hours; −1.0% since the Oct 15 close; −5.7% since the Sep 22 close (UTC daily closes, Bitstamp). These are dollar moves, not AED moves: the AED exchange rate changes too, and we only keep today's rate, so we do not show a change in AED itself.

The AED rate comes from ExchangeRate-API as of 22 Oct 2026, 01:02 London. No official source is wired in for this currency, so it can differ from the central-bank rate. For comparison: 1 AED ≈ 0.243 EUR.

In this site's currency list the BTC price in AED is the 13th largest of 20; closest values: BTC/PLN 317,078 and BTC/AUD 115,957. Currencies cannot be compared by this number: it depends on the size of the unit.

Where the AED price comes from

The UAE dirham price of Bitcoin is the BTC/USD quote (Coinbase) multiplied by the USD/AED rate (ExchangeRate-API (open.er-api.com), as of 22 Oct 2026, 01:02 London). No official source is wired in for this currency, so the rate comes from ExchangeRate-API and can differ from the central-bank rate. Local exchanges can trade at a premium or discount.
