Convert square metres, square feet, acres and hectares — plus marla and kanal for Pakistani land sizes.

About this Area Converter

This area converter handles international units (square metres, feet, yards, acres, hectares) together with the marla and kanal used for land and plots in Pakistan and northern India. It uses the standard Punjab measure: 1 marla = 272.25 sq ft and 1 kanal = 20 marla = 5,445 sq ft, so a 10-marla plot converts cleanly to 2,722.5 sq ft.

How to use it

  1. Enter the area.
  2. Choose the unit it is measured in and the one you want.
  3. Click Convert — the table shows every unit, including marla and kanal.

Example

1 kanal = 5,445 sq ft = 605 sq yd ≈ 505.857 m², and a 5-marla house plot is 1,361.25 sq ft.

Frequently asked questions

How many marla are in a kanal?

Exactly 20 marla make 1 kanal, and 8 kanal make 1 acre (160 marla).

Is the marla the same everywhere?

This tool uses the standard 272.25 sq ft marla common in Punjab. A smaller 225 sq ft marla exists in some regions, so check local records for legal work.
