Syria dollar rate rises slightly on August 5
On Wednesday, August 5, 2026, the US dollar price in Syria saw a slight increase in the parallel (black market), with exchange rates in Damascus recorded at 131.2 Syrian pounds for buying and 131.8 for selling. Meanwhile, the Syrian pound in the black market has depreciated against the dollar, reaching 144.8 pounds in al-Hasakah and 145.8 for selling. In contrast, the official exchange rate remains fixed at the Central Bank of Syria at 12,150 pounds for buying and 12,250 for selling in the old Syrian pound, and 121.50 for buying and 122.50 for selling in the new Syrian pound. The Central Bank continues to offer a final week-long window for holding old Syrian currency to be exchanged for the new currency without fees. Notably, the dollar's price reflects fluctuations in the parallel market against a limited stability in the official exchange rate.
