By [Madhushan](https://allratestoday.com/authors/madhushan/), Founder & Lead Developer · Updated 15 Nov 2026 **Retail board rates.** These are the prices Deutsche Bank Sri Lanka displayed on [its own rates page](https://country.db.com/sri-lanka/index?language_id=1) when we last read it. They are indicative, change through the day, and are not official rates. For the reference rate, see the [Central Bank of Sri Lanka](https://allratestoday.com/central-bank-rates-api/cbsl/). ![](https://allratestoday.com/logos/banks/deutschelk.webp) ## About Deutsche Bank Sri Lanka [country.db.com/sri-lanka/](https://country.db.com/sri-lanka/) Deutsche Bank has operated a branch in Colombo since 1980. Its Sri Lanka page links a daily rate sheet with telegraphic-transfer buying and selling rates for 12 currencies and currency-note buying rates for the main ones. ## ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/lk.png) Latest board, read 16 Nov 2026, 00:23 Sri Lanka time (0h ago) Bank’s own last-updated stamp: **13-11-26** (as printed on its page, local time). Board shown: **Telegraphic transfer buy / sell**. Banks outside the Gulf publish several boards for the same currency — counter notes, drafts, transfers, cards — and this page shows one of them, the same one for every bank in Sri Lanka so the comparison is like for like. The others are on the bank’s own page. | Currency | Bank buys at | Bank sells at | Mid | Spread | Official 2026-11-13 | Mid vs official | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/us.png)`USD` | 328.65 | 337.15 | 332.90 | 2.55% | 332.50 | +0.12% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/eu.png)`EUR` | 363.42 | 372.82 | 368.12 | 2.55% | 367.71 | +0.11% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/gb.png)`GBP` | 434.77 | 446.02 | 440.39 | 2.56% | 440.07 | +0.07% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/in.png)`INR` | 3.4900 | 3.5800 | 3.5350 | 2.55% | 3.5357 | -0.02% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/jp.png)`JPY` | 2.0550 | 2.1081 | 2.0816 | 2.55% | 2.0793 | +0.11% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/ch.png)`CHF` | 393.45 | 403.63 | 398.54 | 2.55% | 398.06 | +0.12% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/ca.png)`CAD` | 230.50 | 236.46 | 233.48 | 2.55% | 233.20 | +0.12% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/au.png)`AUD` | 223.68 | 229.46 | 226.57 | 2.55% | 226.47 | +0.04% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/hk.png)`HKD` | 41.9000 | 42.9800 | 42.4400 | 2.54% | 42.3877 | +0.12% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/se.png)`SEK` | 32.8100 | 33.6600 | 33.2350 | 2.56% | 33.1732 | +0.19% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/sg.png)`SGD` | 255.50 | 262.11 | 258.81 | 2.55% | 258.43 | +0.14% | | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/th.png)`THB` | 9.7100 | 9.9600 | 9.8350 | 2.54% | 9.8176 | +0.18% | All values are LKR per 1 unit of the currency.

The Central Bank of Sri Lanka official rate is what accounting, tax and customs rules name, but it is not what a customer pays at the counter or in an app. Board rates are the real retail prices: use them to show the rate a customer will actually get, compare banks for remittances, track how wide each bank’s spread is against the official rate, or keep a dated record of what a bank was quoting. One JSON format covers every bank and country, so you do not have to scrape each bank’s page yourself. ## Start calling the Deutsche Bank Sri Lanka board API Free key, JSON responses, hourly board captures with the official rate alongside.

No. Deutsche Bank Sri Lanka sets its own buying and selling rates and changes them through the day. The official rate is published once per business day by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka; it is shown in the Official column and is the figure accounting, tax and customs rules refer to. ### Which Deutsche Bank Sri Lanka rate applies when I send money abroad? The sell rate: you are buying foreign currency from the bank. When you convert foreign currency into LKR, the buy rate applies. Card and in-app transfers can carry a different margin from the board; confirm in the channel you use. ### How current is this table? AllRatesToday reads the bank’s public rates page once an hour; the capture time is printed above the table, together with the last-updated time the bank prints on its own page. Rates may have changed since. ### Do you have historical Deutsche Bank Sri Lanka rates? Yes, from 13 Nov 2026 onwards, one board per day. One day: /api/v1/bank-rates/lk/deutschelk?date=YYYY-MM-DD (every plan). A range: /api/v1/bank-rates/lk/deutschelk/history?ccy=USD (paid plans). ## Compare [All Sri Lanka banks side by sideBest buy and sell per currency](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/) [Deutsche Bank Sri Lanka exchange rate API guideBoard, spreads, peers and code examples](https://allratestoday.com/blog/deutsche-bank-sri-lanka-exchange-rate-api/) [National Development BankBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/ndb/)[Nations Trust BankBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/ntb/)[Seylan BankBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/seylan/)[Commercial Bank of CeylonBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/combank/)[Sampath BankBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/sampath/)[Hatton National BankBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/hnb/)[People’s BankBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/peoples/)[Amana Bank PLCBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/amana/)[DFCC Bank PLCBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/dfcc/)[Cargills Bank PLCBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/cargills/)[HSBC Sri LankaBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/hsbclk/)[Pan Asia BankBoard rates](https://allratestoday.com/bank-exchange-rate-api/lk/panasia/) [Central Bank of Sri LankaOfficial rate, daily, with history](https://allratestoday.com/central-bank-rates-api/cbsl/)
