About Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan
The Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan publishes daily telegraphic-transfer buying and selling rates for 12 currencies in ngultrum. The ngultrum is pegged one-to-one to the Indian rupee, so the table tracks the rupee's moves against the dollar, euro and the other majors; the RMA's online archive starts in mid-2024.

Quick start
One request for the pair you need — USD to BTN at the official Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan rate:
curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/central-bank/rma/latest?source=USD&target=BTN" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key" Or the bank's full published table:
curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/central-bank/rma/latest" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key" On paid plans, any historical date or a time series:
curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/central-bank/rma/history?source=USD&target=BTN&from=2025-01-01" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key" Node.js / TypeScript client
A dedicated zero-dependency npm package wraps these endpoints — rma-bhutan-exchange-rate:
npm install rma-bhutan-exchange-rate import { getRate } from 'rma-bhutan-exchange-rate';
const pair = await getRate('USD', 'BTN', { 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 Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan rate?
A market rate is a moving target; the rate Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan publishes is a fixed, citable figure that stays put once printed — which is why invoicing, customs, audit evidence, and statutory accounting in Bhutan lean on it rather than on a live feed. Every response from this API carries the bank's own rate_date, and on days with no publication you get the most recent published table — the one compliance rules tell you to apply.
Pairs the bank doesn't print directly are resolved from its table (inverse or cross via BTN) and explicitly flagged "derived": true — so what the bank printed and what was computed are never confused.

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.
