The AFN/USD pair shows how many US dollars are needed to buy one Afghan Afghani, reflecting Afghanistan's economic ties with the United States.
Each row combines a UTC date, a rate and the change from the previous available observation. A positive change means the base currency buys more of the quote currency than on the previous available date.
Days without a quotation are not interpolated: the series keeps only observations that were actually received.
Compare several periods before a trip, an international transfer or a foreign-currency invoice. The average, minimum and maximum provide a quick reference, while the table enables a date-by-date check.

The AFN/USD currency pair represents the exchange rate between the Afghan Afghani (AFN), the official currency of Afghanistan, and the US Dollar (USD), the world's primary reserve currency. This directed pair indicates how many US dollars are required to purchase one Afghan Afghani. When the AFN appreciates against the USD, it means the Afghani strengthens, making Afghan goods more expensive for US buyers and reducing the cost of US imports for Afghan consumers. This pair is relevant for international trade, remittances, and aid flows between the two countries.
Structural drivers of the AFN/USD exchange rate are heavily influenced by the monetary policies of Da Afghanistan Bank (DAB) and the US Federal Reserve. Interest rate differentials, inflation rates, and economic growth in both economies play key roles. Afghanistan's economy is largely dependent on agriculture, mining, and foreign aid, making it sensitive to commodity prices and geopolitical stability. The US economy, being the largest in the world, drives global risk sentiment and capital flows. Political events, security conditions, and trade relations significantly impact the Afghani's value, while the US dollar's strength is influenced by US economic data and Federal Reserve policy.
Over the past several years, the AFN/USD exchange rate has experienced notable volatility due to political transitions and economic challenges in Afghanistan. The period following the Taliban takeover in 2021 saw a sharp depreciation of the Afghani amid uncertainty and reduced foreign aid. Subsequent years have seen efforts by the central bank to stabilize the currency through interventions and policy measures. However, without specific historical data, it is important to note that the pair remains sensitive to ongoing developments in Afghanistan's political landscape and its economic relations with the international community.
