Central banking authorities in Dhaka have published the latest official foreign exchange figures, establishing the baseline trading rates for major international currencies against the Bangladeshi taka. According to the standard updates sourced directly from Bangladesh Bank, commercial institutions and foreign exchange operations across the country continue to adjust their buy and sell margins within tightly managed parameters.
The US dollar remains the primary anchor currency for regional import-export settlements and remittance inflows. In the local banking channel, buying rates for the US dollar stand at 123.55 taka, while authorized institutions are selling at 123.58 taka. The narrow spread reflects ongoing stabilization measures enforced by the central bank to curb curb-market volatility and maintain predictability for international trade.
European and Western currencies show consistent valuation across major commercial desks:
-
British Pound: UK Sterling leads major foreign currencies in purchasing power, quoted at 164.67 taka for buying and 164.73 taka for selling.
-
Euro: The Eurozone’s single currency maintains a strong position, trading at 138.86 taka on the buying side and 138.90 taka for selling.
-
Australian Dollar: Commercial desks are buying the Australian currency at 85.79 taka and offering it for sale at 85.89 taka.
Regional commercial ties and trade volume with key Asian partners are similarly reflected in the exchange benchmarks:
-
Singapore Dollar: Crucial for Southeast Asian trade and migrant worker remittances, Singapore’s currency stands at 96.55 taka buying and 96.58 taka selling.
-
Chinese Yuan: Refinement in direct trade settlements between Dhaka and Beijing keeps the Chinese Yuan at 18.48 taka buying and 18.49 taka selling.
-
Indian Rupee: Serving as the key rate for cross-border consumer trade and regional travel, the Indian Rupee is balanced symmetrically at 1.30 taka for both buying and selling transactions.
-
Japanese Yen: The Japanese currency is quoted at 0.78 taka for buying and 0.78 taka for selling.
Exchange rate stability remains pivotal for Bangladesh’s macro-economic environment as central financial regulators balance import costs against overseas worker remittance flows. Market participants, import businesses, and commercial banks rely on these official figures to calculate letter of credit (LC) commitments and manage daily treasury operations.
