Frequently Asked Questions
What is the current KWD to EGP exchange rate?
The Kuwaiti Dinar to Egyptian Pound rate typically ranges between E£96-105 per KD1. KWD is the world's strongest currency, making it extremely valuable for Egyptian workers sending money home. Since KWD is pegged to a currency basket and EGP follows IMF-directed float, this rate reflects both Kuwait's stability and Egypt's economic challenges.
Why do so many Egyptians work in Kuwait?
Kuwait employs around 650,000 Egyptians in education (teachers are highly valued), healthcare, engineering, and services. Kuwaiti salaries are among Gulf's highest, and KWD's strength means remittances go further in Egypt. Historical ties (Egypt supported Kuwait in 1990-91 Gulf War) maintain strong bilateral labor relations. Many Egyptian families have someone in Kuwait.
What's the best way to send KWD to Egypt?
Use Kuwaiti banks like NBK or KFH with Egyptian correspondent banking, Al Muzaini or Dollarco exchange houses (popular in Kuwait), Egyptian banks' Kuwait branches like NBE, or Wise/Remitly for digital transfers. Given KWD's high value, even small fee differences matter—compare carefully for amounts over KD100.
When should I convert Dinars to Egyptian Pounds?
Convert when EGP is weak (high KWD/EGP, above E£100) to maximize pounds received. Watch Egyptian devaluation cycles—CBE often adjusts around IMF reviews. For regular remittances, send consistently. For major expenses (housing, weddings), coordinate with EGP weakness periods announced by Central Bank of Egypt.
Are there limits on sending money from Kuwait to Egypt?
Kuwait allows free outbound transfers for documented purposes. Transfers over KD3,000 need paperwork. Egypt welcomes all remittances—no limits or taxes on incoming worker remittances. For property purchases, Egyptian banks may require documentation on fund sources. Workers should keep transfer receipts for both Kuwait and Egyptian records.
