More than 10 million Bangladeshis currently live abroad for employment, business and higher education, making overseas remittances one of the country’s most important sources of foreign currency. Alongside remittance inflows, Bangladesh’s growing participation in international trade, overseas travel, education and cross-border digital transactions has made daily foreign exchange rates increasingly significant for businesses and individuals alike.
Against this backdrop, the latest exchange rates between the Bangladeshi taka and major international currencies were released on Friday, 10 July 2026. These rates are generally determined based on market conditions observed by commercial banks, authorised money exchange institutions and developments in the global foreign exchange market. Exchange rates, however, remain subject to change throughout the trading day as supply and demand fluctuate and international financial conditions evolve.
The updated rates provide a useful reference for anyone involved in international financial transactions, although actual buying and selling prices may differ slightly depending on the financial institution and the nature of the transaction.
| Foreign Currency | Exchange Rate (Bangladeshi Taka) |
|---|---|
| US Dollar (USD) | Tk 122.70 |
| Euro (EUR) | Tk 143.46 |
| British Pound (GBP) | Tk 165.81 |
| Indian Rupee (INR) | Tk 1.25 |
| Malaysian Ringgit (MYR) | Tk 30.29 |
| Singapore Dollar (SGD) | Tk 95.68 |
| Saudi Riyal (SAR) | Tk 32.89 |
| Canadian Dollar (CAD) | Tk 86.99 |
| Australian Dollar (AUD) | Tk 85.99 |
| Kuwaiti Dinar (KWD) | Tk 401.82 |
Foreign exchange rates remain particularly important for Bangladesh’s overseas workforce. The value of remittances received by families in Bangladesh depends directly on the prevailing exchange rate at the time funds are transferred. Even relatively small fluctuations can influence the amount beneficiaries receive in local currency, especially for households that rely heavily on income earned abroad.
The exchange rates are equally relevant for importers and exporters, whose business costs and revenues are often linked to foreign currencies. Students pursuing higher education overseas, patients travelling abroad for medical treatment, tourists and companies engaged in international trade also monitor these rates closely when planning payments and managing expenses.
Economic analysts note that currency values are shaped by a combination of domestic and international factors. Monetary policy decisions by central banks, changes in global interest rates, demand for the US dollar, inflation trends, geopolitical developments and broader economic performance all influence movements in the foreign exchange market. As a result, the rates published on a particular day should be regarded as indicative and may change as market conditions develop.
Financial institutions have also reminded customers that exchange rates are not always identical across all banks or authorised money exchange providers. Differences between buying and selling rates, transaction fees and service charges may vary from one institution to another. For that reason, individuals planning to send or receive money internationally, purchase foreign currency or complete any cross-border financial transaction are advised to verify the latest applicable rates with their bank or authorised foreign exchange dealer before proceeding.
With Bangladesh maintaining strong economic ties with global markets and millions of its citizens living overseas, daily foreign exchange updates continue to play an essential role in personal financial planning, international commerce and the country’s broader external financial stability.
