Current rate
1 GBP = 138 BDT as of 2026-05-19. The UK hosts over 700,000 people of Bangladeshi heritage, with dense diaspora clusters in Tower Hamlets, Whitechapel, Oldham and Birmingham. Remittances from Britain are a top-3 inflow source for Bangladesh, and the BDT has steadily weakened against sterling since the 2022 IMF programme, driving constant rate-checking by senders.
