This static currency converter provides the official monthly accounting rate for the euro as determined by the European Commission. These conversion rates, established by the Accounting Officer of the European Commission in accordance with Article 19 of the Financial Regulation, are essential for specific financial operations within the EU framework.
Originally designed for calculating reimbursements for expenses, travel, and subsistence costs for external individuals participating in European Commission meetings and interviews, this converter is also a valuable tool for general users. It allows you to access monthly currency conversion rates stretching back to 1994, providing a comprehensive historical perspective on currency fluctuations.
The exchange rates presented are market rates from the second to last day of the preceding month. These rates are sourced from the European Central Bank, a trusted authority on European financial data. In cases where ECB data is unavailable, rates are sourced from delegations or other reliable sources close to that date, ensuring accuracy and reliability.
InforEuro’s converter extends beyond just the euro and dollar, offering rates for both current and historical currencies of countries within and outside the European Union. For each currency, you can find historical conversion rates against the euro, and prior to 1999, against the ecu. This rich dataset of exchange rates is conveniently available in electronic format, with downloadable files dating back to March 1994. This makes it an invaluable resource for anyone tracking currency trends or needing historical exchange rate data.
