Factors influencing its value include the country's economic performance, inflation rates, and global market trends. Travelers or individuals looking to exchange currency may find that the exchange rate varies slightly between financial institutions, so it's essential to check the latest rates.

The Belize Dollar (BZD) is the official currency of Belize, a small Central American country bordered by Mexico and Guatemala. The currency is represented by "BZD" and is sometimes symbolized as "＄" or "BZ＄" to differentiate it from other dollar-denominated currencies. The Belize Dollar is subdivided into 100 cents.

The Belize dollar has been in use since 1973, replacing the British Honduras dollar at par. The Central Bank of Belize is responsible for issuing and managing the currency.
