USD to TJS Exchange Rate History — Tajikistan
This page charts the historical USD to Tajikistani Somoni (TJS) parallel — or "black market" — exchange rate in Tajikistan. As new readings are collected they appear in the chart and tables below, building a record of how the street price of the dollar has moved over time.
Tajikistan has periodically rationed dollars at the official rate, pushing some demand to the parallel market despite heavy remittance inflows.
How to read the TJS rate history
The chart plots the parallel buy rate — how many TJS it took to buy one US dollar — at each point we recorded. The daily table below lists the closing buy and sell rate for each day, while the monthly table summarises the average, high and low for each month, which is useful for comparing one period with another.
A rising line means the Tajikistani Somoni is losing value (more TJS per dollar); a falling line means it is gaining.
What has moved the Tajikistani Somoni recently?
In Tajikistan, the parallel rate is driven by factors such as one of the world's highest remittance-to-GDP ratios, periodic dollar rationing, ruble linkage. When dollars become scarcer or confidence falls, the street rate climbs ahead of the official National Bank of Tajikistan (NBT) rate; when supply improves or policy tightens, the gap can narrow again.
Because the parallel rate often moves before official devaluations, its history is a useful early-warning record — a steadily rising trend frequently precedes an official adjustment, while a long plateau suggests relative stability.
Using historical TJS rates
Historical rates help with budgeting, invoicing, remittance planning and spotting trends, but they are not a forecast — past movements do not guarantee future ones. For the live rate, see our main USD to TJS page, and use the converter for exact amounts.
