Suriname dagkoers: dollar and euro to SRD
The "dagkoers" (day rate) isn't one number. Here it is in four sourced layers — mid-market, CBvS official, cambio, and bank — each shown with its own honest date, because that honesty is the point.
What is the dollar koers in Suriname today?
| Layer | 1 USD | 1 EUR | Date / source |
|---|---|---|---|
Mid-market (interbank) | 39.78 SRD | 42.96 SRD | live, hourly · 17h ago ExchangeRate-API (interbank) |
CBvS official (weighted average) | check source | check source | monthly, published |
Cambio (licensed exchange) | check source | check source | daily, per cambio |
Bank rate | check source | check source | verify with your bank DSB / Finabank / Hakrinbank / Republic |
Only the mid-market layer carries a live figure (our hourly feed). The CBvS average is published monthly; the cambio buy/sell is published daily on cme.sr; bank rates are set per account holder. We never invent a cambio street rate — check the cited source for its current figure.
What is the CBvS exchange rate?
The reference rate — no one actually transacts here; every service adds a margin.
The Central Bank of Suriname publishes a monthly weighted-average rate — the official reference. Check cbvs.sr for the current month's figure; it is not a live "today" rate.
Licensed cambios publish live buy/sell rates daily — e.g. Central Money Exchange (cme.sr). The buy rate sits below mid-market: that margin is the price of cash. Rates vary by cambio — check cme.sr for today's buy/sell.
Banks set their own SRD↔USD/EUR rate for account holders; it is not published live. Verify with your bank before a large conversion.
Cambio rate vs bank rate: why the spread?
A cambio quotes two rates: the buy rate (what it pays you for your dollars) and the sell rate (what it charges to give you dollars). The buy rate sits below mid-market and the sell rate above it — that gap is the cambio's margin, the price of turning currency into cash on the spot. Since the SRD was floated in 2020–21 and devalued sharply, the gap between the official CBvS reference and the cambio street rate is exactly the number people watch daily — the "dagkoers". We surface all of it rather than pretending one number is "the" rate.

Frequently asked questions
The mid-market rate is about 39.78 SRD per 1 USD (updated hourly). But that isn't what a cambio gives you: licensed cambios (e.g. cme.sr) publish their own daily buy/sell, and the CBvS official rate is a monthly weighted average. Check the layer that matches your transaction.
It depends on direction and amount. A cambio's buy rate for your dollars sits below mid-market — that spread is the price of instant cash. Banks quote their own rate to account holders (not published live). Compare both for your specific amount; neither is universally cheaper.
