• Bahrain : 1000 Fils = 1 Bahraini Dinar (BD)
• Iraq : 1000 Fils = 1 Iraqi Dinar (ID)
• Yemen : 100 fils = 1 Yemen rial (YRI)
• Jordan : 1000 Fils = 1 Jordanian Dinar (JD)
• Kuwait : 1000 Fils = 1 Kuwaiti Dinar (KD)
• United Arab Emirates : 100 fils = 1 UAE dirham (abb .: DH, according to ISO: AED)
