Why Herat matters for the Iranian market
Herat is the largest city of western Afghanistan and the closest foreign currency market to Iran's eastern border. Much of the border trade passes through Dogharoun and Islam Qala, and Herat's money changers trade dollars, Toman and afghani every day, so traders watch the Herat rate as a sign of where the Tehran market is heading.
The market table shows the gap with the Tehran free-market dollar: positive means the dollar is dearer in Herat. Compare it with the dollar in Sulaymaniyah, dollar in Dubai, dollar in Istanbul.
