Overview
Trinidad and Tobago's exchange rate stood at 6.75 in 2025, a decline of +0.00 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 6.75 by 2025. Trinidad and Tobago ranked 114th globally.
Trinidad and Tobago’s official exchange rate has risen from a trough of 1.71 in 1966 to an all‑time peak of 6.78 in 2017, reflecting a gradual depreciation of the local currency over six decades of data. By 2025 the rate stood at 6.75, placing the nation 114th globally and marginally below its 2017 high, suggesting that the recent weakening has largely stabilized. The trajectory mirrors that of other small, commodity‑exporting economies; for example, Bolivia’s rate of 6.91 and Libya’s 6.23 illustrate comparable levels of depreciation in the same period. The long‑run trend is driven by persistent current‑account deficits, modest inflation differentials, and limited foreign‑exchange inflows, while occasional spikes correspond to global oil price shocks that affect the country’s export earnings. Continued diversification of exports and prudent monetary policy could moderate further depreciation, but persistent external imbalances would likely keep the rate near its current plateau.
