Daily foreign exchange rates remain an important indicator for businesses, importers, exporters, overseas workers, travellers and individuals engaged in international financial transactions. As Bangladesh continues to participate actively in global trade, movements in major international currencies directly influence import costs, export competitiveness, remittance inflows and overall economic activity. Exchange rates fluctuate in response to developments in the global economy, monetary policies adopted by central banks, and shifts in international demand and supply for foreign currencies.
According to information released by Bangladesh Bank and the country’s commercial banks, the official exchange rates of major international currencies against the Bangladeshi Taka for Tuesday, 7 July 2026, are as follows:
| Currency | Exchange Rate (BDT) |
|---|---|
| US Dollar | 122.85 |
| Euro | 140.54 |
| Pound Sterling | 164.49 |
| Canadian Dollar | 86.47 |
| Australian Dollar | 85.40 |
| Chinese Yuan | 18.08 |
| Singapore Dollar | 95.04 |
| Indian Rupee | 1.28 |
| Malaysian Ringgit | 30.20 |
| Saudi Riyal | 32.75 |
| Qatari Riyal | 33.71 |
| Kuwaiti Dinar | 397.14 |
| UAE Dirham | 33.50 |
Officials noted that foreign exchange rates are subject to daily fluctuations depending on market conditions, international financial developments and the pricing policies of individual banks. As a result, anyone planning overseas remittances, international payments, import or export transactions, or currency exchange is advised to verify the latest rates with the relevant bank or an authorised money exchange institution before completing any transaction.
Financial analysts say Bangladesh’s foreign exchange market has remained relatively stable in recent months. Stronger oversight by the central bank, together with a healthy flow of remittances from Bangladeshis working abroad, has contributed to improved market conditions. This has also helped narrow the gap between official exchange rates and those prevailing in the open market compared with previous periods.
Market data indicate that the average exchange rate of the US dollar has fluctuated within a relatively narrow range of approximately BDT 122.75 to BDT 123.00 over the past month. Such limited volatility has provided a measure of certainty for importers, exporters and businesses involved in international trade, allowing them to plan transactions with greater confidence.
Remittances continue to play a significant role in supporting the country’s foreign exchange reserves and maintaining stability in the currency market. A consistent inflow of overseas earnings strengthens the supply of foreign currency, helping to ease pressure on exchange rates while supporting Bangladesh’s external financial position.
Economists believe that a stable foreign exchange market is essential for controlling import costs, ensuring uninterrupted access to industrial raw materials and facilitating international trade. Stability also helps businesses manage financial risks more effectively. By contrast, a sharp rise in the value of the US dollar can increase the cost of imports, raise production expenses for manufacturers and ultimately lead to higher prices for consumers.
Authorities have also reminded market participants that exchange rates remain dynamic and may change during the course of the day in response to global financial developments, fluctuations in foreign currency demand and supply, and evolving market conditions. Individuals and businesses are therefore encouraged to rely on the most recent official quotations before undertaking any foreign currency transaction.
