Converting from Bhutan Ngultrum (BTN) to Haiti Gourde (HTG)

What is Bhutan Ngultrum (BTN)

The Bhutan Ngultrum (BTN) is the official currency of Bhutan, a small landlocked country located in the eastern Himalayas. Introduced in 1974, the Ngultrum is abbreviated as BTN and is often represented by the symbol Nu. The currency is pegged to the Indian Rupee (INR), which means its value is closely linked to that of the Indian currency.

One Ngultrum is equivalent to 1 Indian Rupee, making it a stable currency within its region. Bhutan's economy relies heavily on agriculture, tourism, and hydropower exports. The central bank of Bhutan, known as the Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan, is responsible for issuing the Ngultrum and ensuring its stability.

In everyday transactions, the Ngultrum is subdivided into 100 chhertum, although the chhertum coins are not widely used. Banknotes are available in denominations that include 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, and 1,000 Ngultrum. The designs on these banknotes often reflect Bhutanese culture, religion, and stunning landscapes, showcasing the nation's unique heritage.

What is Haiti Gourde (HTG)

The Haiti Gourde (HTG) is the official currency of Haiti, a Caribbean nation situated on the island of Hispaniola. The Gourde has been in use since 1813 and is often abbreviated as HTG, commonly symbolized as Gd or Gourde. The currency operates under a decimal system, with one Gourde divided into 100 centimes.

Haiti's economy is diverse, including agriculture, mining, and manufacturing, but it faces significant challenges such as political instability and natural disasters. The Bank of the Republic of Haiti is the country's central bank, responsible for issuing the Gourde and regulating its monetary policy.

The HTG is available in both coins and banknotes. Coins typically include denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, and 50 centimes, as well as 1 and 5 Gourdes. Banknotes are issued in higher denominations: 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, and 1,000 Gourdes. The banknotes feature prominent Haitian figures, local wildlife, and vivid cultural images, providing insights into the nation’s rich history and environment.
