Exchange rates as of April 9: The dollar is falling, while the euro and the zloty have risen sharply

9 April 09:21

The National Bank of Ukraine has set the official exchange rates for Thursday, April 9, 2026. The U.S. dollar continued to decline for the fourth consecutive day, while the euro and the Polish zloty rose significantly. This information is available on the NBU’s official website, according to "Komersant Ukrainian"

What is the dollar exchange rate on April 9?

The National Bank set the official hryvnia-to-US-dollar exchange rate for April 9 at 43.3792 UAH per dollar.

For comparison, on April 8, the official exchange rate was 43.4946 UAH per dollar. Thus, the dollar fell by 11.54 kopecks.

This marks the fourth consecutive decline in the official exchange rate of the U.S. currency. This trend indicates that the hryvnia is currently showing a slight strengthening against the dollar in the NBU’s official calculations.

What is the euro exchange rate as of April 9

The official hryvnia-to-euro exchange rate on April 9 was set at 50.7580 UAH per 1 euro.

The day before, on April 8, the rate was 50.2711 UAH per euro. Thus, the European currency rose by 48.69 kopecks.

This is one of the most significant daily increases for the euro in recent times. Against the backdrop of the dollar’s decline, such a jump once again demonstrates that the movements of the dollar and the euro relative to the hryvnia do not always occur in sync.

What is the zloty exchange rate on April 9

The Polish zloty also appreciated on April 9. The NBU set the official exchange rate at 11.9295 UAH per 1 zloty. This is 16 kopecks more than the previous day.

The zloty’s rise is important for Ukrainians who work with the Polish market, receive remittances in this currency, or track expenses for travel and purchases related to Poland.

What’s happening in the cash market

In the cash market, the dollar fell by about 5 kopecks and traded near the 43.10 UAH mark. At the same time, the NBU’s official exchange rate and the rates at banks or exchange offices are different indicators.

The official rate is used as a benchmark for calculations, accounting, and financial reporting, while the cash market may react slightly differently.

What this means for Ukrainians

For those who keep their savings in dollars, the current trend means a slight decline in the official exchange rate. For those who follow the euro or the zloty, on the other hand, the day turned out to be more significant—both currencies strengthened substantially.

This may be relevant for money transfers, foreign currency payments, purchases of imported goods, and planning expenses abroad.
