The first coins in Bhutan were introduced around the 1790’s which were bad imitations of the coins issued by the Cooch Bihar Kingdom. The Indian rupee has circulated in Bhutan since 1907 and it remains legal tender in Bhutan today. Bhutan first issued rupee coins in 1928 at par with the Indian rupee, and introduced the ngultrum in 1974 again at par with the Indian rupee. The ngultrum is divided into 100 chertrums. The ngultrum’s ISO 4217 code is BTN. Banknotes are currently issued by the Royal Monetary of Bhutan, who took over the responsibilities from the Royal Government of Bhutan in 1983.
At present coins circulate in denominations of 20, 25, 50 chertrum and 1 ngultrum. The 5 and 10 chertrum coins have been discontinued. Banknotes are issued in 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 500 ngultrum. The 1 and 2 ngultrum notes have been discontinued but remain legal tender.
The ngultrum (ISO 4217 code BTN) has been the currency of Bhutan since 1974. It is subdivided into 100 chhertum (called chetrums on coins until 1979). The ngultrum replaced the rupee at par.
The ngultrum is equal in value to the Indian rupee. As of January 7, 2005, there are 43.8400 ngultrums to the US dollar or 57.2443 to the euro.
India was key in assisting the Bhutanese government as it developed its economy in the early 1960s. When the ngultrum was introduced, it retained the peg to the Indian rupee which the Bhutanese rupee had maintained. The ngultrum does not exchange independently with other nation's currencies but is interchangeable with the Indian rupee.
