What is Taiwan Dollar (TWD)

The Taiwan Dollar (TWD) is the official currency of the Republic of China, commonly known as Taiwan. It is abbreviated as NT＄ and is often represented by the symbol "NTD." The Taiwan Dollar has been the country’s currency since 1949, replacing the old Chinese National Dollar.

The Taiwan Dollar is divided into units of 100 cents. It is considered a stable currency and is used widely in Taiwan for everyday transactions. The currency is issued and regulated by the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan), which aims to maintain the stability of the currency, control inflation, and ensure a robust economy.

One of the unique features of the Taiwan Dollar is its denomination structure, which includes various banknotes and coins. The most common coins include 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 NT＄ denominations, while banknotes come in 100, 200, 500, 1,000, and 2,000 NT＄ denominations.
