Bangladesh Taka Holds Steady Against Major Currencies

Bangladesh’s foreign exchange market continued to show relative stability on 9 July 2026, with the Bangladeshi taka recording only modest fluctuations against the world’s leading currencies. As international trade and cross-border financial transactions continue to expand, exchange rates remain a key indicator for importers, exporters, overseas workers and businesses managing foreign currency payments.

According to information released by Bangladesh Bank and commercial banks operating in the country, the US dollar and several other major international currencies remained broadly stable in the domestic market. While exchange rates may vary slightly between financial institutions and throughout the trading day, the official figures provide an overall picture of the market.

The latest exchange rates are as follows:

Exchange rates are subject to change depending on market conditions and banking transactions.

Bangladesh’s growing engagement with the global economy has increased the importance of monitoring daily currency movements. Exchange rates directly influence the cost of imports, export competitiveness, overseas education expenses, international travel and the value of remittances sent home by Bangladeshis working abroad.

Financial sector analysts say the gap between official exchange rates and open-market rates has narrowed significantly in recent months. They attribute this improvement to close monitoring by the central bank, stronger foreign exchange management and a healthy inflow of workers’ remittances.

Market observers also note that the US dollar has remained within a relatively narrow trading band over the past month, fluctuating between BDT 122.75 and BDT 123.00. Such stability has provided a measure of certainty for importers, exporters and businesses that rely on foreign currency transactions, helping them plan payments and manage costs more effectively.

Although the market has remained comparatively calm, exchange rates continue to respond to developments in the global economy, international trade, commodity prices and domestic demand for foreign currency. Any significant changes in these factors could influence future movements in the value of the taka against major international currencies.

Banks may quote slightly different buying and selling rates depending on their own treasury operations and customer transactions. As a result, individuals and businesses engaging in foreign exchange transactions are advised to verify the prevailing rates with their respective financial institutions before completing any transaction.
