BGN to EUR Exchange Rate - Convert Bulgarian Lev to Euro

Converting from Bulgarian Lev (BGN) to Euro (EUR)

What is Bulgarian Lev (BGN)

The Bulgarian Lev (BGN) is the official currency of Bulgaria. Introduced in 1880, the Lev has undergone several changes before arriving at its current form. The currency's name is derived from the Lev, which was a lion in the historical context of Bulgarian money. One Lev is subdivided into 100 stotinki, making it easier to manage smaller transactions.

The Bulgarian Lev is fixed to the Euro through a currency board arrangement, which means that its exchange rate is firmly pegged. As a result, the Lev tends to be more stable compared to other currencies. This fixed exchange rate helps to minimize currency fluctuation risks for businesses and individuals who may need to convert their money for travel or trade.

The Central Bank of Bulgaria (Bulgarian National Bank) is responsible for issuing and managing the Lev. It ensures that the currency maintains its value and provides stability in the financial system. In everyday use, you will find both paper banknotes and coins representing the Lev. While the Lev is primarily used within Bulgaria, it is also recognized within the neighboring countries, although not officially.

What is Euro (EUR)

The Euro (EUR) is the official currency used by 19 of the 27 member countries of the European Union, making it one of the most widely used currencies in the world. Launched in 1999, the Euro was designed to facilitate trade and economic cooperation among its member states by providing a single currency. The Euro is divided into 100 cents and is represented by the € symbol.

The Eurozone, the group of countries that use the Euro, includes nations such as Germany, France, Spain, and Italy, among others. This shared currency not only simplifies transactions within these countries but also promotes stronger economic ties and stability across Europe. The European Central Bank (ECB) manages the Euro, aiming to ensure price stability and a positive economic environment for member nations.

One significant advantage of the Euro is that it eliminates exchange rate risks for travelers and businesses operating within the Eurozone. When converting from BGN to EUR, citizens can benefit from more predictable pricing, as well as easier online purchases and investments.
