The Trinidad and Tobago dollar, abbreviated as TTD, is the official currency of the twin-island nation of Trinidad and Tobago. It is subdivided into 100 cents and is symbolized by the dollar sign ($) or sometimes as TT$ to distinguish it from other dollar-denominated currencies. The currency is issued by the Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago. The TTD is used for everyday transactions within the country, including shopping, services, and business activities. The exchange rate can fluctuate against other currencies, such as the US dollar, affecting trade and tourism. The TTD is an important part of the nation's economy.
