Converting from Brunei Dollar (BND) to Tanzanian Shilling (TZS)

What is Brunei Dollar (BND)

The Brunei Dollar, abbreviated as BND, is the official currency of Brunei Darussalam, a small but prosperous nation located on the island of Borneo in Southeast Asia. The currency symbol for the Brunei Dollar is ＄, often preceded by "BND" to distinguish it from other dollar-denominated currencies.

Introduced in 1986, the Brunei Dollar is subdivided into 100 cents. It is pegged to the Singapore Dollar (SGD) at a 1:1 rate, which helps maintain its value and stability in international markets. The Brunei Dollar is used primarily within Brunei but can also be accepted in parts of Malaysia due to the close economic relations between the two countries.

One of the remarkable features of the Brunei Dollar is its design, which features various national symbols and important figures from Brunei's history. The banknotes come in denominations of ＄1, ＄5, ＄10, ＄20, ＄50, and ＄100, while coins are available in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, and 50 cents, as well as ＄1.

What is Tanzanian Shilling (TZS)

The Tanzanian Shilling, represented as TZS, is the official currency of the United Republic of Tanzania, located in East Africa. It was first introduced in 1966, replacing the East African Shilling at a rate of 1 TZS to 1 EAS. The Tanzanian Shilling is further divided into 100 cents, and its currency symbol is also "TSh."

The Tanzanian economy is diverse, relying on agriculture, tourism, and mining. The Shilling is an important part of this economy as it facilitates domestic trade and commerce. The banknotes of the Tanzanian Shilling feature notable figures and landmarks in Tanzanian history, reflecting the nation’s rich cultural heritage.

Banknotes are available in several denominations, including TSh 1,000, TSh 2,000, TSh 5,000, and TSh 10,000. Coins are available in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 cents, as well as TSh 1,000.
