Bangladesh’s foreign exchange market continues to reflect the country’s expanding international trade relations and the steady inflow of remittances from millions of expatriate workers. As global economic conditions fluctuate, exchange rates play a crucial role in determining the cost of imports, export competitiveness, and the overall stability of the domestic economy. On Tuesday, 7 April 2026, the latest rates released by Bangladesh Bank provide a snapshot of the prevailing currency values in the country’s official and interbank markets.
The United States dollar, which remains the most influential foreign currency in Bangladesh’s trade and remittance system, is being bought at Tk 122.80 and sold at Tk 122.85. The narrow margin between buying and selling rates indicates relative stability in the dollar market, although minor fluctuations may still occur depending on global demand and domestic liquidity conditions.
The euro is valued at Tk 141.72 for buying and Tk 141.79 for selling, reflecting ongoing adjustments in line with European market movements. Meanwhile, the British pound continues to maintain a stronger position against the Bangladeshi taka, with buying and selling rates recorded at Tk 162.48 and Tk 162.60 respectively.
Other major currencies also show steady movement. The Japanese yen remains comparatively low in value at Tk 0.76, while the Australian dollar is priced at Tk 84.92 for buying and Tk 84.98 for selling. The Singapore dollar stands at Tk 95.54 to Tk 95.64, and the Canadian dollar is recorded at Tk 88.26 for buying and Tk 88.32 for selling. The Indian rupee is trading at Tk 1.31 to Tk 1.32, while the Saudi riyal is valued at Tk 32.62 for buying and Tk 32.50 for selling.
Economists note that exchange rate movements are influenced by several factors, including global inflation trends, oil prices, foreign investment flows, and the strength of remittance inflows, which remain a vital lifeline for Bangladesh’s economy. Any shift in these currencies can have a direct impact on import costs, especially for fuel, machinery, and essential commodities.
