Ukraine's Dollar Exchange Rate Hits All-Time High

Курс долара в Україні досяг рекордних позначок.

Official Currency Rates for June 5, 2026

The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) has released the official exchange rates for June 5, 2026. On this day, the U.S. dollar reached a historic peak, rising by three kopiykas compared to the previous banking day. The official dollar rate now stands at 44.38 hryvnias, the euro at 51.67 hryvnias, and the Polish zloty at 12.19 hryvnias. Over the past week, the dollar has increased by 11 kopiykas, the euro by 23 kopiykas, and the British pound by 38 kopiykas.

Currency Rates and Economic Outlook

As of June 5, 2026, the NBU reports the following exchange rates:

  • Official NBU rate USD: 44.3793 hryvnias
  • EUR: 51.6686 hryvnias
  • GBP: 59.7345 hryvnias
  • PLN: 12.1938 hryvnias
  • CHF: 56.3833 hryvnias

According to the data, the Swiss franc gained 26 kopiykas over the week, while the Polish zloty rose by 4.5 kopiykas.

The NBU's board has decided to keep the key policy rate at 15%. Inflation had been slowing from June 2025 to January 2026, but has since started to climb again. Additionally, the NBU has authorized an operation to exchange non-cash currency from banks into cash.

“The dollar cannot remain weak against the euro forever, and once the final trade agreement between the U.S. and the EU is signed, the market will return to normal.”

Economist Vitaliy Shapran

The rising value of the dollar and other currencies in Ukraine points to an unstable economic environment that requires regulatory attention. The NBU's decision to maintain the key rate at 15% may be an effort to curb inflation and stabilize the hryvnia. As the economist's comment suggests, a potential U.S.-EU trade deal could positively impact the currency market, but for now, the situation remains tense.
