AED to MAD rate today
Today's live rate for money sent from the UAE to Morocco, the 30-day trend, and the forces moving it.
The Moroccan dirham — yes, also a 'dirham' — is one of the steadier currencies on this list. AED to MAD is shaped less by drama and more by Morocco's managed regime, tourism and remittances. Here's the live rate, the 30-day trend, and what moves it.

What moves the AED to MAD rate
The AED→MAD rate is the Moroccan dirham versus the dollar. Morocco manages its dirham against a euro-and-dollar basket, which keeps it relatively steady:
Basket peg
The dirham is pegged to a basket that is mostly euro, so it moves partly with the euro against the dollar.
Stronger euro → dirham firmerManaged band
Bank Al-Maghrib has gradually widened the trading band but keeps moves orderly.
Central bank keeps it orderlyTourism & remittances
Tourism and remittances are key foreign-currency earners that support the dirham.
Strong inflows → dirham firmerTrade & phosphates
Phosphate exports and the size of the import bill shape the external balance.
Wider trade gap → dirham softerHow to send money from the UAE to Morocco

Start with the fair rate
Check the mid-market AED to MAD 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: Morocco pegs its dirham to a basket that is mostly euro, so the MAD moves partly with the euro. Since the UAE dirham tracks the dollar, a stronger euro can nudge AED to MAD lower.

Common questions
How much is 1 AED in MAD today?+
The live mid-market AED to MAD 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 Morocco will be slightly lower once their margin and fees are added.
What is the cheapest way to send money from the UAE to Morocco?+
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 MAD 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 Morocco?+
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 Morocco take?+
It depends on the provider and method — some transfers to Morocco 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 Morocco?+
No. Wasli helps you understand exchange rates and compare providers. You send through the provider you choose — Wasli never holds or moves your funds.
