Converting from Tajikistani Somoni (TJS) to Mozambican Metical (MZN)

What is Tajikistani Somoni (TJS)

The Tajikistani Somoni is the official currency of Tajikistan, a country located in Central Asia. It was introduced in 2000 to replace the Tajikistani Ruble, with the aim of stabilizing the economy following the civil war in the 1990s. The currency is named after Ismoil Somoni, a historical figure who is considered the founder of the Tajik state.

The Somoni is abbreviated as TJS and is subdivided into 100 dirams. The currency is issued and regulated by the National Bank of Tajikistan, which plays a crucial role in maintaining its stability. The currency value fluctuates based on market demand and supply, influenced by various factors like economic conditions, inflation rates, and international trade.

The Somoni features distinct banknotes and coins, with banknotes available in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 Somoni. Coins are available in smaller denominations. While the currency is mainly used within Tajikistan, it can also be found in some neighboring countries due to remittances and trade.

What is Mozambican Metical (MZN)

The Mozambican Metical is the official currency of Mozambique, a country situated on the southeastern coast of Africa. The currency was first introduced in 1980 as a replacement for the escudo, and its name is derived from the historical term "metical," which referred to the Spanish dollar that was commonly used in trade throughout the region.

Abbreviated as MZN, the Metical is further divided into 100 centavos. The Bank of Mozambique is responsible for issuing and regulating the currency, ensuring its value and stability in the market. The economy of Mozambique has seen significant changes over the years, and the value of the Metical can be sensitive to shifts in the economy, inflation, and political stability.

Similar to the Somoni, the Metical has banknotes and coins. Banknotes come in denominations of 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500 Meticais, while coins are available in smaller values. Although primarily used within Mozambique, the Metical also plays a role in regional trade.
