About Omani Rial Exchange

The Omani Rial (OMR) is the official currency of Oman, one of the Gulf region’s most stable and highly valued currencies. We accept all denominations of Omani Rial banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.

Current Omani Rial Banknotes

The current Omani Rial banknotes are issued by the Central Bank of Oman and feature strong security credentials, including watermarks, security threads, and holographic elements. The rial is subdivided into 1,000 baisa, and notes circulate across a range of denominations. If you’re also travelling across the wider Gulf region, we exchange related currencies such as Bahraini Dinars and Kuwaiti Dinars.

Old Series & Damaged Notes

Unlike most high street exchanges, we accept older withdrawn Omani Rial banknotes as well as notes that are torn, worn, or otherwise damaged. Any note must be at least 50% intact to qualify, and a slightly reduced rate will apply to reflect the additional handling involved. If you’re unsure whether your notes are exchangeable, feel free to contact us before sending.

Omani Rial Coins

We also accept Omani Rial coins, including baisa denominations across the full range in circulation. Most banks and currency exchanges won’t touch coins, but we will — do bear in mind that the rate is slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling costs involved.

Omani Rial Exchange FAQ

Is the Omani Rial one of the highest-value currencies in the world?

Yes — the Omani Rial is consistently one of the highest-valued currency units globally, with one rial worth significantly more than one British pound. This means even a modest amount of leftover Omani Rials can be worth exchanging.

Can I exchange Omani Rial coins as well as banknotes?

Yes, we accept Omani Rial coins, including the smaller baisa denominations that most UK banks and post offices will refuse. The exchange rate for coins is slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling involved, but there’s no need to leave them sitting in a drawer.

Do you accept old or withdrawn Omani Rial banknotes?

Yes, we accept older series Omani Rial banknotes that are no longer in circulation, which most high street exchanges won’t take. A slightly lower rate applies to withdrawn notes, and any note must be at least 50% intact to be accepted.

How do I send my Omani Rials and when will I be paid?

Simply box up your Omani Rials and post them to us at your own arrangement — we recommend using a tracked service for your peace of mind. Once we receive and verify your currency, we’ll pay you within 5 working days via bank transfer or PayPal. If for any reason you’re not happy with the offer we make, we’ll return your currency to you free of charge.

Can I exchange Omani Rials if the notes are torn or damaged?

Yes, we accept damaged Omani Rial banknotes, provided each note is at least 50% intact. Unlike most high street currency exchanges, we don’t turn away worn or lightly damaged notes — though a slightly reduced rate will apply. If you’re unsure about a particular note, contact us and we’ll be happy to advise.
