Egyptian Pound Exchange Rate in Syria
The Egyptian pound is not pegged to the dollar at a fixed rate; it floats, following a series of devaluations in recent years. That puts it in the same category as the Turkish lira: a volatile currency against a volatile currency.
As a result EGP/SYP is one of the most active pairs on this site, because both sides move — sometimes in opposite directions on the same day.
Egypt hosts a substantial Syrian community, particularly in Cairo and Alexandria, which makes this pair a daily reference for small trade and family remittances.
Frequently asked questions about the Egyptian Pound
Why does EGP/SYP move so much?
Because both currencies move. The Egyptian pound floats rather than being pegged to the dollar, so its volatility compounds the Syrian pound's.
How much is 1,000 Egyptian pounds in Syrian pounds?
Multiply 1,000 by the sell price above; the result is in new pounds.

Why does this differ from the rate I see in Egypt?
Because they measure different markets: this prices the Egyptian pound against the Syrian pound in Syria, not against the dollar in Egypt.
