About the USD/TRY exchange rate
USD to TRY has been one of the most dramatic charts in modern currency markets: the lira went from under 2 per dollar in 2013 to more than 30 by 2024 amid high inflation and unconventional rate policy. Rates can change meaningfully within a single day, so live quotes matter more here than for almost any other pair on this site.
US Dollar (USD)
The US Dollar is the world’s primary reserve currency and is on one side of nearly 90% of all foreign-exchange trades. Commodities such as oil and gold are priced in dollars globally, so USD moves ripple through almost every other currency. Its value is driven largely by US Federal Reserve interest-rate policy, US employment and inflation data, and global demand for safe-haven assets.
Turkish Lira (TRY)
The Turkish Lira has experienced some of the sharpest depreciation of any major emerging-market currency, driven by years of high inflation and unorthodox interest-rate policy. The currency was redenominated in 2005, removing six zeros. Lira rates are among the most volatile you will find for a G20 economy, so always check a live rate before converting.
Frequently asked questions
What is the current USD to TRY exchange rate?
The live mid-market rate is shown at the top of this page and refreshes on every visit.
Is this the rate I will get from my bank or transfer service?
Not exactly. This page shows the mid-market rate — the midpoint between global buy and sell prices, and the fairest benchmark available. Banks and money-transfer services add a margin (typically 0.5%–4%) on top, plus possible fixed fees. Use the mid-market rate here to judge how good an offered USD→TRY rate really is.
How often is the USD/TRY rate updated?
Rates come from an open exchange-rate feed that updates daily, sourced from central-bank and market data. US Dollar rates are influenced by the Federal Reserve (the Fed), and Turkish Lira rates by the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye (CBRT). For high-volatility pairs, always re-check just before you transact.
