BDT - Bangladeshi Taka currency

Bangladesh flag Bangladesh

The Bangladeshi Taka (BDT) is the official currency of Bangladesh and is issued by the Bangladesh Bank. Introduced in 1972 following the country’s independence from Pakistan, the Taka plays a crucial role in Bangladesh’s rapidly growing economy, which is fueled by garment exports, remittances, and agriculture. The currency is subject to exchange rate controls and periodic devaluations to support trade competitiveness. While the Taka is the primary currency for domestic transactions, the US Dollar is also widely used for international trade.
