FAQ
+What is today's USD to TZS rate?
The live USD/TZS rate shown above is the official daily indicative rate published by the Bank of Tanzania. BoT updates it each business day.
+Where do the Tanzanian shilling rates come from?
Directly from the Bank of Tanzania (BoT), which publishes a daily indicative exchange rate. We mirror that official reference rate exactly, with no spread applied.
+Is the TZS rate an official rate or a parallel-market rate?
It is the official BoT daily indicative rate, the central bank's reference rate (locally the shilling is the "shilingi"). We only publish official central-bank rates, never parallel, bureau, or street rates.
