ACLEDA Bank Exchange Rate API: KHR Buy and Sell Rates as JSON

ACLEDA Bank is Cambodia’s largest commercial bank by branches. Its foreign exchange page lists note, app, telegraphic-transfer and overseas-tax rates in riel. This guide shows how to read that board as JSON: what the rates mean, how they compare with the National Bank of Cambodia official rate and with other banks in Cambodia, and the calls that return them.

What the ACLEDA board shows

• 8 currencies against the Cambodian riel: AUD, CNY, EUR, GBP, JPY, THB, USD and VND. Every value is KHR per 1 unit of the foreign currency.
• The telegraphic transfer pair. Cambodia runs on both riel and US dollars; banks quote riel per unit for a handful of currencies, with separate note and transfer boards, plus crosses against the dollar. The rates here are the transfer board in riel. The National Bank of Cambodia official rate is shown next to each row.
• USD on 15 November 2026: ACLEDA bought at 4059 and sold at 4071 KHR, a spread of 0.29%. The National Bank of Cambodia official rate was 4073, so the bank's mid sat -0.20% from it.
• The bank's own timestamp. The page prints a last-updated stamp (November 13, 2026 4:00 PM on the board above), returned as bank_updated_at next to our captured_at.
• Every day's board is kept permanently, from 13 November 2026. Read one past day with ?date=, or a range for one currency with the /history endpoint (paid plans).

Spreads across the board

On the 15 November 2026 board the tightest spreads were USD (0.29%), THB (2.20%), VND (2.24%) and the widest AUD (9.22%), EUR (5.82%), JPY (5.05%). Spread is (sell − buy) ÷ mid: what a round trip through the bank costs, before any fees. The API returns it on every row as spread_pct, so you can rank currencies or alert when a bank widens its board.

USD at ACLEDA and other banks in Cambodia

USD on the 9 boards AllRatesToday reads in Cambodia, all captured on 15 November 2026 (the National Bank of Cambodia official rate was 4073):

ACLEDA had the 2nd narrowest USD spread of the 9. One call to /api/v1/bank-rates/kh returns every board in the table at once.

Board rate or official rate?

The National Bank of Cambodia rate is the one tax, accounting and customs rules in Cambodia name; nobody transacts at it. ACLEDA's board is the price a customer actually gets. The API puts both on every row: official is the central bank's rate for the same currency and vs_official_pct is how far the bank's mid sits from it. Use the board to show customers a real price, compare banks for a remittance, or keep a dated record of what the bank quoted; use the National Bank of Cambodia endpoint when a rule asks for the official rate.

FAQ

Where do the ACLEDA Bank rates come from?

From the bank's own public rates page (https://www.acledabank.com.kh/kh/eng/ps_cmforeignexchange), read hourly. AllRatesToday does not change the numbers: each row is the buy and sell price ACLEDA shows, with the mid, the spread and the National Bank of Cambodia rate added.

Are these the official KHR exchange rates?

No. They are ACLEDA's retail prices for customers. The official rate in Cambodia is the National Bank of Cambodia rate, which the API returns as official on each row where the central bank has one, and in full from the central-bank endpoint.

How often is the ACLEDA board updated?

AllRatesToday reads the page every hour. The bank's own last-updated stamp is returned as bank_updated_at, so you can tell a fresh read of an unchanged board from a new board.

Can I get ACLEDA rates for a past date?

Yes, from 13 November 2026 onward; every day's board is kept permanently. Add ?date=YYYY-MM-DD for one day: the response is the board captured that day, or the nearest earlier day within five days, with date_requested and snapshot_date added. For a range, /history?ccy=USD&from=…&to=… returns one row per day as JSON, CSV, XML or XLSX on paid plans.

Do I need an API key?

Yes. Commercial bank boards need an API key; any plan works, the free key included, and each call counts against the plan. Public pages or widgets that show the rates need a visible link to allratestoday.com.
