The BDT (Bangladeshi taka) is the currency of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh.
Issuance of bank notes ৳10 and larger is controlled by Bangladesh Bank, while the ৳2 and ৳5 banknotes are the responsibility of the ministry of finance of the government of Bangladesh. The banknotes of Tk. 2 and Tk.5 have mostly been replaced by coins while lower denomination coins (including all poysha coins) upto Tk. 1 have almost gone out of circulation due to inflation.

It was formerly divided into 100 poysha, but poysha coins are no longer in circulation.
