About this ranking

Units of the currency issued by the place that buy 1 euro: the monthly average of the euro foreign exchange reference rates the European Central Bank sets each working day. The United States carries US dollars per euro, Japan yen per euro.

A higher value means a weaker currency against the euro. Rates belong to the country that issues the currency; currencies shared by several countries are not included, and the euro area has no rate of its own here (see exchange_rate_per_usd for euros per US dollar). Rates of currencies replaced by the euro stop in the month before the country adopted it. The reference rates are set at 14:15 CET for information only and are not the rates of any transaction.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the EU countries are compared on one definition. 1 EU countries with data in other periods have no value for March 2006 and are left out rather than filled from another source. Equal values share a rank.
