About the Panamanian Balboa to South African Rand rate
This page converts the Panamanian Balboa (PAB) into the South African Rand (ZAR) at the mid-market rate. Both currencies trade continuously on the foreign exchange market, and the ratio between them moves with interest rates, inflation and the trade flows between their economies. The rate shown here is the neutral reference each bank, card network and bureau de change then builds its own price on top of.
The Panamanian Balboa is pegged to the US dollar at 1.0000 PAB per USD, so PAB/ZAR moves exactly as USD/ZAR does: any change in this rate is the South African Rand moving against the US dollar.
Every figure on this page is a mid-market reading of PAB/ZAR, dated above. It says where the pair stood at that time, not where it is heading: no rate here is a forecast, a quote, or an offer to exchange.

Is 16.5010 the rate my bank will give me?
No. 16.5010 is the mid-market rate for PAB to ZAR, the midpoint between the buy and sell price and the rate before anyone adds a margin.

What is the PAB to ZAR exchange rate?
One PAB is worth 16.5010 ZAR, and one ZAR is worth 0.06060 PAB, at the time shown under the rate. The figure comes from ExchangeRate-API: it is a mid-market reading rather than a live trading price, and every figure on this page, the converter included, uses it.
How do I convert ZAR back to PAB?
Use the inverse rate: one ZAR is worth 0.06060 PAB, so multiply your South African Rand amount by that figure. You can also swap the two currencies in the converter above and the table recalculates in the other direction.
Can I convert PAB to ZAR without internet?
Yes, in the Android app. It stores the last synced PAB to ZAR rate on the device and keeps converting with no connection, then updates as soon as you are online again. This website needs a connection, because it fetches the rate when the page loads.
Why does the PAB to ZAR rate keep changing?
The Panamanian Balboa and the South African Rand are priced against each other continuously on the currency market. Interest rates, inflation, trade flows and political news all move the pair, which is why the rate you saw in the morning is rarely the rate you see at night.
Convert PAB to ZAR offline
The Android app keeps the last synced rates on your phone, so PAB to ZAR still converts with no connection: on a plane, in a metro, or abroad without a data plan. It also converts one source currency into several targets on one screen, charts the history of every pair, and can send you a push notification when PAB/ZAR crosses a level you set.
