Bangladesh’s economy continues to maintain robust connections with international markets, bolstered by growing trade and commerce with countries around the world. A significant contributor to the nation’s financial stability is the remittance sent by millions of Bangladeshis living and working overseas. These inflows play a crucial role in keeping the country’s economic engine running, facilitating household consumption, business transactions, and foreign exchange reserves.
To assist expatriates and businesses in planning their financial dealings, the latest exchange rates as of 24 March 2026 are presented below. It is important to note that these rates are indicative and may fluctuate throughout the day based on global market dynamics and central bank interventions.
According to the latest data from Bangladesh Bank, the official rates for buying and selling foreign currencies are as follows:
| Currency | Buying Rate (BDT) | Selling Rate (BDT) |
|---|---|---|
| US Dollar (USD) | 122.75 | 122.75 |
| British Pound (GBP) | 164.82 | 164.86 |
| Euro (EUR) | 142.53 | 142.56 |

The US Dollar remains the primary reference currency for international trade, maintaining a steady buying and selling rate of 122.75 Bangladeshi Taka. The British Pound and Euro, commonly used in European transactions, show slightly higher values due to prevailing exchange trends. Regional currencies such as the Indian Rupee and Saudi Riyal are also closely monitored by businesses engaged in cross-border trade.
Fluctuations in these rates can have a direct impact on importers, exporters, and households receiving remittances. Observers advise that individuals and businesses regularly check the latest rates before conducting foreign exchange transactions to ensure optimal financial planning.
