The same د.إ 1,000 produces a different naira figure depending on the route it takes.

At today's official rate of about ₦362.50 per dirham, د.إ 1,000 is approximately ₦362,500. On the parallel (street) market the figure is a little higher, around ₦367,937 as of 10 Oct 2026. The gap between the two is currently small. Use the live converter above for the up-to-the-minute number.
Right now only slightly. Since the naira float, the official and parallel markets have largely converged — the street rate typically sits only about 1–2% above official, not the wide gap seen in earlier years. This page shows both so you can see the real difference on د.إ 1,000.
Banks convert at their own rate, usually a little above official once fees and margins are added, and access to the official window is limited to approved purposes with documentation.

If you’re converting د.إ 1,000 because something real needs paying — a subscription, tuition, a family bill abroad, an order from a foreign store — you don’t need the rate. You need the thing paid, at a figure you approved first. That’s a WhatsApp message away.
