The United Arab Emirates uses the UAE dirham, written as AED. It has been the official currency since 1973. Banknotes feature landmarks, national symbols, and cultural icons. Cash is widely used, though cards and digital payments are very common in cities like Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Coins are used for smaller transactions. The dirham’s value is stable and managed by the Central Bank of UAE. The UAE dirham reflects the country’s wealth, economic strength, and modern development.
