USD/NGN Rate History
Official vs Parallel / Black Market Rate
As of Mon, 05 Oct 2026 22:00:03 UTC, the official exchange rate is 1 US Dollar = ₦1,331.28, while the parallel (black-market / USDT) rate is about ₦1,365 per dollar — roughly a 2.5% premium over the official rate.
Because demand for dollars in Nigeria exceeds the supply available at the official rate, a parallel market (often called the "black market") trades dollars at a premium. The most liquid, real-time version of this is the USDT/NGN crypto rate — a dollar-pegged stablecoin trading peer-to-peer — shown above as the parallel rate.
