Rates are mid-market averages taken from Sri Lankan bank websites. A counter will quote a little either side of them, so confirm the number with your bank before you transact.
View rates at every bank →At the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's rate for October 30, 2026, 1 US dollar is 332.59 rupees. That is the rate this converter starts with. A bank's counter rate will be a little different; to see it, choose a bank under More options.
By default, the Central Bank of Sri Lanka's reference rate: the midpoint between its buying and selling rates for the day. It is a fair middle value, but no counter trades at it. For a currency the Central Bank does not quote, the converter uses the average of the banks' rates and says so under the result. Under More options you can switch to the average of all banks, or to a single bank.
The buying rate is the rate the bank buys at, so it is the rate you sell at. That is the one that matters when money is sent to you. The selling rate is the rate the bank sells at, so it is the rate you buy at. That is what matters before you travel. Banks name both rates from their own side of the counter, which is why they read backwards at first. The selling rate is always the higher of the two; the gap is the bank's margin.
Yes. Open More options and choose a bank. The converter then uses that bank's published rates: the buying rate for the currency you hand over, and the selling rate for the currency you receive. These are transfer (TT) rates where the bank publishes them, so cash at the counter may differ slightly. That is the amount the bank's own board says you would get, before any fee.
Yes. Under More options, pick a date or tap a shortcut such as one week ago. Banks publish rates on weekdays only, so a Saturday, Sunday or holiday uses the last working day's rates, and the converter shows which day that was.
Yes, for example US dollars to euros. Sri Lankan banks quote every currency against the rupee, so the converter goes through the rupee: the first currency into rupees, then those rupees into the second.
Not always. A published rate is an advertised one. The amount at the counter can depend on whether you bring notes or receive a transfer, how much you change, and any fee or commission the bank adds. Use the converter to compare, and confirm the figure with the bank before you hand anything over.
So you can copy it onto a cheque, a form or a receipt without miscounting the zeros. From one lakh up it is written two ways: in millions, which group in threes like the figure above, and in lakhs and crores.
