About European Central Bank

The European Central Bank is the central bank of the 20 euro-area countries. Its euro foreign exchange reference rates — around 30 currencies against the euro — are published every business day at about 16:00 CET and serve as the standard conversion reference across the EU.

• Official website: www.ecb.europa.eu
• Official rate publication: Euro foreign exchange reference rates

Node.js / TypeScript client

A dedicated zero-dependency npm package wraps these endpoints — ecb-exchange-rate:

npm install ecb-exchange-rate

import { getRate } from 'ecb-exchange-rate';

const pair = await getRate('USD', 'EUR', { apiKey: 'art_live_...' });
console.log(pair.rate, pair.rate_date);

Zero dependencies, TypeScript types included, and it runs anywhere fetch exists — Node 18+, Bun, Deno, and edge runtimes.

Why use the official European Central Bank rate?

Live market rates move continuously, but tax filings, customs declarations, audits, and statutory accounting in Eurozone and beyond typically require the official rate published by European Central Bank for a given date — a fixed, citable number that never changes after publication. This API serves those published tables with the bank's own rate_date on every response; weekends and holidays return the most recent published date, which is the rate compliance rules require you to apply.

Pairs the bank doesn't print directly are resolved from its table (inverse or cross via EUR) and explicitly flagged "derived": true — so what the bank printed and what was computed are never confused.

Endpoints

• GET /api/v1/central-bank/ecb/latest — latest table or single pair (all plans)
• GET /api/v1/central-bank/ecb/{YYYY-MM-DD} — the table for any date (paid plans)
• GET /api/v1/central-bank/ecb/history — time series, up to 5,000 rows (paid plans)
• GET /api/v1/central-bank/ecb/availability — publication calendar: the dates the bank actually published (all plans)

Full parameter reference in the API documentation. Every request counts toward your plan's monthly quota — rates change once per business day, so caching a published table locally makes a small quota go far.
