How to convert USD to Caribbean dollars
A quick, plain-English guide to the currencies and rates used across the islands.
How this calculator works
This converter uses indicative mid-market reference rates (per 1 USD) for JMD, TTD, BBD, XCD, GYD and BSD. Choose a source and target currency, type an amount, and the result updates instantly — no network needed.
Example conversions
At a reference rate of 156.12 JMD per USD, $100 US dollars is about J$15,612. Banks and cambios apply their own margin on top of the mid-market rate, so the amount you actually receive will differ slightly.

What is the USD to JMD exchange rate?
The calculator uses an indicative mid-market reference of about 156.12 JMD per 1 USD. The real rate moves constantly and differs between banks, cambios and apps, so check a live source before a large transfer.
How do I convert US dollars to Jamaican dollars?
Type an amount, choose USD as "From" and JMD as "To", and the result updates automatically. The same works for Trinidad (TTD), Barbados (BBD), the Eastern Caribbean (XCD), Guyana (GYD) and the Bahamas (BSD).
Why is the rate I get different from this calculator?
The calculator shows the mid-market rate. Banks and FX services add a spread or fee, so the retail rate is always slightly less favourable. Use the remittance fee comparison to see the real, all-in cost of sending money.
Are the Barbados and Bahamian dollars pegged to the US dollar?
Yes. The Barbados dollar is pegged at 2.00 BBD per USD (Central Bank of Barbados), the Bahamian dollar at 1.00 BSD per USD (Central Bank of The Bahamas), and the Eastern Caribbean dollar at 2.70 XCD per USD (Eastern Caribbean Central Bank).
Can I convert back from JMD to USD?
Yes — just swap the "From" and "To" selections. The conversion works in both directions using the same reference rate.
