The Rand is a popular currency in the Southern African region and is often used in trade and tourism. The value of the Rand is influenced by various factors, including economic indicators, trade balances, political stability, and international market conditions. As one of the most traded currencies in Africa, the ZAR's exchange rates can fluctuate significantly against other currencies.

The symbol for the Lev is "лв" in Cyrillic script and "BGN" in Latin script.

As a member nation of the European Union, Bulgaria aims to adopt the Euro but has not yet done so.
