Converting from Samoa Tala (WST) to Bangladesh Taka (BDT)

What is Samoa Tala (WST)

The Samoa Tala (WST) is the official currency of Samoa, a beautiful island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean. The currency was introduced in 1967, replacing the Samoan pound at a conversion rate of 1 Tala = 2.0 pounds. The Tala is divided into 100 sene. The symbol for Tala is often represented as "T" or "WS＄."

Samoa's economy is primarily based on agriculture, tourism, and remittances from overseas Samoans. The Tala is not widely traded internationally, which can make it somewhat challenging to exchange outside of the region. The exchange rate for the Tala can fluctuate based on global economic conditions, trade agreements, and tourism numbers, so it is important to check the latest rates before making any transactions.

In everyday life, you will find various denominations of banknotes and coins in Samoa. Banknotes come in values of 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 tala, while coins include 5, 10, 20, and 50 sene, as well as 1 and 2 tala coins. The design of the currency often reflects Samoa’s rich cultural heritage and natural beauty.

What is Bangladesh Taka (BDT)

The Bangladesh Taka (BDT) is the official currency of Bangladesh, a densely populated nation in South Asia. The Taka was introduced in 1972, shortly after Bangladesh gained independence from Pakistan. Like the Tala, the Taka is also divided into smaller units; specifically, 1 Taka is equal to 100 poisha. The symbol for Taka is "৳" or "Tk."

Bangladesh's economy has been rapidly growing, mainly due to its garment industry, agriculture, and remittances. As one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, the Taka has become increasingly important in international markets, although it still experiences significant fluctuations in its exchange rate.

The Taka is available in various denominations of banknotes, including 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, and 1,000 taka. Coins are available in denominations of 1, 2, 5, and 10 taka, along with smaller denominations of poisha coins. The designs on the banknotes feature significant historical figures and cultural symbols of Bangladesh.
