What is the USD/UGX exchange rate today?

1 US Dollar buys 4,049.42 Uganda Shilling, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Oct 7, 2026, 6:17 AM UTC. The mid-market rate is the midpoint between the buy and sell prices banks trade at — the fair reference rate, not the price you’ll be charged.

How often does the USD/UGX rate update?

The live rate refreshes about once a minute, and every reading is stamped with its own UTC time so you always know how fresh it is. Past daily points are immutable — once a day closes, its rate never changes.

Why is this different from my bank’s rate?

The rate here is mid-market; banks and apps quote a slightly worse rate and keep the difference as their margin. For example, change $1,000.00 at 4,049.42 and you’d receive UGX 4,049,417. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about UGX 3,968,429 — roughly UGX 80,988 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.
