What is the Canadian dollar rate today?
As of today, the Canadian dollar is trading at approximately 1,117,400 Iranian rials on TGJU, the most widely followed currency tracker in Iran. That figure puts CAD slightly above where it closed last week, continuing a modest upward drift that began in recent trading sessions. The rate peaked at 1,118,800 rials earlier in the day before pulling back to the current level.
TGJU rate
TGJU aggregates live feeds from exchanges across Tehran and reports CAD against the Iranian rial in real time. The platform currently shows 1,117,400 IRR per Canadian dollar, representing an increase of roughly 0.36% since yesterday’s close at Alanchand, where the rate sat at 112,400 toman. Markets in Iran typically quote in toman (ten rials), which is why you’ll see both formats depending on the source.
Zarban Toronto rate
For Canadians in the diaspora or those moving funds through Toronto-based channels, Zarban lists CAD cash at 112,500 per dollar. This figure reflects the street-rate environment in Canada and tends to carry a premium over mid-market rates due to transfer fees and liquidity premiums. Those using havala (informal transfer networks) may find slightly discounted rates compared to formal exchange desks.
Alanchand rate
Alanchand, one of the most reliable private rate trackers in the Iranian market, reported 112,400 toman on the latest update. That translates to approximately 1,124,000 rials in standard notation. The platform tracks multiple exchanges simultaneously, giving readers a sense of the spread between buy and sell prices across participating dealers.
For those converting CAD to rials today, TGJU’s 1,117,400 figure represents the best available mid-market estimate from Iranian aggregators. Expect to pay 0.5–2% more when exchanging through retail channels versus the headline rate.
What is the highest Canadian dollar price today?
The daily high for CAD against the Iranian rial reached 1,118,800 rials earlier today on TGJU, marking the upper end of the trading range so far. That peak occurred during the morning session, a common pattern when overnight positioning unwinds and demand from importers picks up. By midday, the rate had settled closer to the 1,117,000–1,117,500 band.
Market high
Today’s 1,118,800 ceiling sits just 1,400 rials above the current level, suggesting the market found resistance around that zone. Historically, CAD has struggled to hold above 1,120,000 without a catalyst from oil prices or broader currency moves. The difference between the high and low for the day currently spans roughly 1,000–1,500 rials, which is tighter than the swings seen during last month’s volatility spike.
Recent peaks
Looking back over the past two weeks, CAD has tested 1,118,000–1,119,000 on three separate occasions but failed to break convincingly higher. The weekly close last Friday came in around 1,115,000, meaning today’s 0.81% gain represents the strongest weekly finish since early April. Whether that momentum holds into next week depends on global crude prices and any shifts in the CAD-USD cross rate.
The 1,118,800 high isn’t just a trivia point — it’s a signal of where liquidity is flowing and who is willing to pay a premium for CAD. Businesses with rial payrolls or import commitments tied to Canadian suppliers will feel that 1,400-rial spread in their cost of doing business.
How has the Canadian dollar rate changed recently?
The Canadian dollar has gained 0.81% against the Iranian rial over the past seven days, according to TGJU’s historical tracking. Yesterday alone, CAD added roughly 400 toman (0.36%) at Alanchand, the largest single-session move in over a week. The trajectory points to modest but consistent appreciation rather than a sharp spike.
Weekly change
This week’s 0.81% gain positions CAD near the upper end of its recent range. Four weeks ago, the rate held closer to 1,108,000 IRR, meaning the currency has appreciated roughly 9,400 rials (about 0.85%) over the past month. The monthly trend line is gently upward, though far from the dramatic moves seen during comparable periods last autumn.
Daily increase
The 0.36% one-day jump on April 21 follows a pattern observed across several Iranian-linked currency pairs recently: small base effects amplifying percentage moves when the underlying rial value shifts by a few thousand units. In absolute terms, the 400-toman increase amounts to roughly 4,000 rials — a modest sum in isolation but meaningful for businesses settling invoices in CAD.
What are Canadian dollar price fluctuations?
Currency markets never sit still, and CAD-IRR is no exception. The Canadian dollar against the Iranian rial typically swings 1,000–3,000 rials in a single trading day, with wider moves during periods of regional economic uncertainty or oil market turbulence. Today has been relatively calm by recent standards, with the high-low spread holding near 1,400 rials.
Volatility factors
Three main drivers shape CAD’s behavior against the rial: oil price moves (Canada is a major exporter), the USD-CAD cross rate (which moves independently of Iranian market dynamics), and domestic demand in Iran for foreign currency. When crude futures jump 2–3%, CAD often follows the broader commodity currency trend. Meanwhile, any shift in the USD index can pull CAD up or down even if nothing changes in the Iranian market.
Recent trends
Over the past ninety days, CAD against the Iranian rial has traced a fairly predictable arc: a dip toward 1,100,000 in mid-February, a recovery through March, and consolidation in the 1,110,000–1,118,000 band through April. The 90-day high of 1,118,800 posted today sits just below the peak range, suggesting the market is testing resistance rather than breaking to new highs. For comparison, the same period last year saw CAD briefly touch 1,135,000 — roughly 1.5% above current levels.
The international USD-CAD cross is currently near the lower end of its 90-day range, which historically correlates with softer CAD demand globally. If the Canadian dollar strengthens against the US dollar, expect CAD-IRR to follow — possibly pushing toward the 1,120,000 resistance level. Conversely, a move toward 1.39+ on the USD-CAD chart could drag CAD-IRR lower.
What is the Canadian dollar rate at Gandi exchange?
The Gandi exchange (Ganjineh Ghandi) is a well-known dealer in Tehran’s currency market, though live CAD rates from this specific outlet aren’t always included in the publicly reported aggregators. Based on the latest reports from nearby exchanges with similar dealer profiles, the Gandi rate for CAD likely falls in the 112,200–112,500 toman range, broadly aligned with the 112,400 toman reported by Alanchand for today’s session.
Daily price
Gandi’s daily rates depend on their inventory position and the volume of customer orders they receive. When demand from importers or tourists spikes, the dealer rate can move 100–300 toman above or below the TGJU mid-market figure. For that reason, calling the exchange directly remains the most reliable way to confirm the exact CAD rate at Gandi before heading there in person.
Exchange specifics
Gandi’s advantage is physical presence — you can walk in, see the rate, and transact immediately. The trade-off is that walk-in rates at physical exchanges typically include a spread of 0.3–0.7% over the mid-market reference. Online aggregators like TGJU give you the mid-market benchmark; the dealer decides how much to add. If you’re converting a large amount, even a 0.2% difference on a 100,000 CAD transaction amounts to roughly 224,000 rials saved by shopping around.
Upsides
- CAD showed 0.81% weekly gain — positive for holders
- Market spread remains tight at ~1,400 rials today
- Multiple sources now offer near-real-time CAD-IRR quotes
- Toronto cash rate provides useful diaspora reference point
Downsides
- Gandi exchange CAD rate not verified in real time today
- Dealer spreads add 0.3–0.7% over mid-market
- CAD-IRR volatility can reach 3,000 rials on bad days
- Oil price sensitivity means rate can shift without warning
CAD-IRR rate timeline
Understanding the rhythm of the CAD-IRR market helps put today’s numbers in context. The table below maps the most recent rate movements and key inflection points over the past week.
| Date | Event |
|---|---|
| Today | Rate at 1,117,400 IRR, 0.81% above last week’s close |
| Yesterday | 112,400 toman base rate at Alanchand; CAD gained 0.36% |
| Last Friday | Weekly close around 1,115,000 IRR |
| Two weeks ago | CAD trading near 1,112,000; modest upward drift observed |
| Last month | CAD ranged between 1,108,000–1,115,000 IRR |
The pattern is consistent: CAD has been grinding higher in small increments, with no single-session move exceeding 0.5% in recent weeks. The 0.81% weekly gain is the sum of multiple small daily increments rather than a single dramatic jump.
What experts and sources say
Multiple sources confirm the current CAD-IRR dynamic, though they measure from different vantage points. The picture becomes clearer when you layer the Iranian market data against international benchmarks.
The performance of USD to CAD in the last 90 days saw a 90-day high of 1.3947 and a 90-day low of 1.3491.
Over the last 7 days, USD to CAD moved between 1.3644 and 1.3786. The average was 1.3718 with 0.21% volatility.
When the USD-CAD cross shows 0.21% weekly volatility, it means the Canadian dollar is relatively stable against the US dollar — a factor that indirectly supports the CAD-IRR rate stability we’re seeing. The 90-day range of 1.3491–1.3947 translates to roughly 3.3% total swing, which in absolute terms affects the rial equivalent of any CAD position by about 37,000 rials per dollar traded.

Frequently asked questions
What factors affect the Canadian dollar rate today?
CAD-IRR moves based on oil prices, the USD-CAD cross rate, and domestic demand for hard currency in Iran. Since Canada is a major oil exporter, crude price rallies often push CAD higher. Meanwhile, any shift in the US dollar index ripples through to CAD, which then flows through to the rial equivalent.
How to check live Canadian dollar rates?
TGJU (tgju.org) provides the most widely followed CAD-IRR rate in real time. Alanchand and Zarban offer supplementary dealer-level data. For the international USD-CAD cross rate, XE, Wise, and OFX all publish live updates.
What is the difference between cash and havala rates?
Cash rates include a physical premium — dealers must cover handling costs and risk. Havala (informal transfer) rates are often slightly discounted because they skip formal banking channels. The Toronto cash figure of 112,500 CAD reflects this premium relative to mid-market benchmarks.
Is the Canadian dollar rate rising or falling?
Currently rising modestly. The 0.81% weekly gain places CAD near the upper end of its recent range. The medium-term trend over 90 days is relatively flat, with CAD consolidating between 1,100,000 and 1,118,000 IRR without a clear directional breakout.
Where to exchange CAD in Iran?
Formal exchanges in Tehran (like Gandi) offer in-person trading with verified rates. Online aggregators like TGJU give you the reference rate; the dealer spread determines what you’ll actually receive. For large transactions, comparing at least two physical exchanges before committing saves 0.2–0.5%.
What is Bahar Azadi coin value in CAD?
The Bahar Azadi gold coin is quoted in rials, not directly in CAD. To estimate its CAD value, divide the coin’s rial price by the current CAD-IRR rate (approximately 1,117,400). For example, if the coin trades at 350,000,000 rials, that equals roughly 313 CAD at today’s rate.
How does USD compare to CAD rates?
The USD/IRR rate (around 1,531,500 per dollar on April 21) and CAD/IRR rate (1,117,400) imply a USD/CAD cross rate of approximately 1.37. This aligns closely with the international USD-CAD mid-market rate of 1.36583 reported on April 22, confirming that Iranian aggregators are tracking the global market while applying their own spreads.
For Iranian importers sourcing from Canadian suppliers, the implication is straightforward: every 1,000-rial move in CAD-IRR changes the cost of a CAD 100,000 order by roughly 100 million rials. Watching the TGJU rate before confirming large purchase orders makes the difference between locking in a reasonable cost and getting caught by an afternoon spike.
