Central Bank Announces New Foreign Exchange Rates Against the Som

The Central Bank of the Republic of Uzbekistan has officially announced new foreign exchange rates against the som, effective from April 21, 2026. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to the latest data, major international currencies continue to lose value against the national currency. This situation indicates the ongoing stabilization of the som in the domestic financial market.

Specifically, the official exchange rate of the US dollar decreased by 31.13 som compared to the previous figure, reaching 12,097.33 som. A significant decline was also observed in the value of the Euro, the single currency of the European Union.

The Euro rate dropped by 70.59 som and was set at 14,233.72 som. The British Pound Sterling decreased by 57.85 som, recorded at 16,354.38 som.

At the same time, a slight increase was observed in the rates of some currencies. The Russian Ruble rose by 1.49 som to 160.53 som.

Among other international currencies, the Swiss Franc stood at 15,481.61 som, the Chinese Yuan at 1,774.40 som, and the Japanese Yen at 76.12 som. These official rates set by the Central Bank serve as the primary criteria for accounting, statistical reporting, and calculating various customs duties within the country.

Additionally, these indicators indirectly influence the rates set by commercial banks at currency exchange offices. According to experts, such changes in the foreign exchange market are the result of economic processes related to foreign trade turnover and investment flows.
