AED to GHS rate today
Today's live rate for money sent from the UAE to Ghana, the 30-day trend, and the forces moving it.
The Ghanaian cedi has been one of the world's more volatile currencies. This page shows the official AED to GHS rate, its 30-day trend, and the drivers — cocoa, gold and oil exports, an IMF programme and high inflation. Note: official and parallel rates can differ.

What moves the AED to GHS rate
The AED→GHS rate reflects the cedi versus the dollar — one of the more volatile pairs, with an official-vs-market gap:
Exports (cocoa, gold, oil)
Cocoa, gold and oil are the main dollar earners; weak prices or output hit the cedi.
Weak exports → cedi weakerIMF & debt
An IMF programme and debt restructuring aim to stabilise the cedi.
IMF support → cedi steadierInflation
High inflation has eroded the cedi's value over time.
High inflation → cedi weakerReserves & inflows
Rebuilding reserves and strong inflows can firm the cedi.
Stronger reserves → cedi firmerHow to send money from the UAE to Ghana

Start with the fair rate
Check the mid-market AED to GHS rate above — the honest midpoint before any provider adds a margin. It's your benchmark for everything else.
- 2
Compare the rate and the fee together
A great-looking rate with a high fixed fee can still be a poor deal, especially on smaller amounts. Look at both, and measure each provider's rate against the mid-market number.

Good to know: The cedi has seen steep depreciation in recent years, though IMF support has aimed to steady it. Given the volatility, both the trend and the official-vs-market gap matter here.

Common questions
How much is 1 AED in GHS today?+
The live mid-market AED to GHS rate is shown at the top of this page and updates through the day. That's the fair midpoint reference — the amount a provider actually gives you when sending money from the UAE to Ghana will be slightly lower once their margin and fees are added.
What is the cheapest way to send money from the UAE to Ghana?+
There's no single cheapest provider all the time — it changes with the rate and fees each one sets. The reliable method is to compare the exchange rate AND the transfer fee together against the mid-market rate shown here. The smaller the gap from mid-market, the better the deal.
Why is the AED to GHS rate I'm offered lower than the mid-market rate?+
Providers add a margin on top of the mid-market rate, plus any fixed fee. That difference is how they earn money on the transfer. Comparing that gap between providers is the clearest way to see who is genuinely cheapest.
Is now a good time to send money to Ghana?+
Rates move a little every day. The 30-day trend above shows the recent direction in plain terms. Small moves add up on larger transfers, so it can pay to check the trend before you send.
How long does a money transfer from the UAE to Ghana take?+
It depends on the provider and method — some transfers to Ghana arrive within minutes, others take a business day or two. Speed, rate, and fee all vary by provider, which is why it's worth comparing before you choose.
Does Wasli transfer my money to Ghana?+
No. Wasli helps you understand exchange rates and compare providers. You send through the provider you choose — Wasli never holds or moves your funds.
