Converting from Uzbekistani Som (UZS) to CFP Franc (XPF)

What is Uzbekistani Som (UZS)

The Uzbekistani Som (UZS) is the official currency of Uzbekistan, a country located in Central Asia. Introduced in 1994, the som replaced the Soviet ruble at an exchange rate of 1 som for 1000 rubles. The currency symbol for the som is "so'm," and its ISO code is UZS. Both banknotes and coins are issued, with banknotes being more commonly used due to inflation and the changing economy.

The som has undergone various changes in design and series since its inception, with banknotes featuring images of notable historical figures, architectural landmarks, and traditional Uzbek patterns. The currency is signified as follows:

• Denominations include both paper and coin forms.
• The most commonly used banknotes are 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, and even 100,000 so'm.
• Coins are available in smaller denominations, such as 1, 5, 10, 50, and 100 so'm.

As of now, the value of the Uzbekistani som fluctuates based on supply and demand, affected by economic conditions, inflation rates, and other market factors. When considering international transactions or travel, it's essential to check the current exchange rates.

What is CFP Franc (XPF)

The CFP Franc (XPF) is a currency used in several French overseas territories in the South Pacific, notably French Polynesia, New Caledonia, and Wallis and Futuna. Launched in 1945, the CFP Franc is linked to the euro, being guaranteed by the French government, which provides a level of stability. Its ISO code is XPF.

The CFP Franc is divided into 100 centimes, though centimes are not frequently used in everyday transactions. The currency is recognized by the symbol "CFP," and it exists in both coins and banknotes. The denominations include:

• Commonly used banknotes of 500, 1,000, 5,000, and 10,000 Francs.
• Coins available in various denominations, including 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 Francs.

Because the CFP Franc is pegged to the euro at a fixed rate, its value is relatively stable compared to many other currencies. This stability can be beneficial when considering travel or business transactions within the Pacific region.
