TVD - Tuvaluan Dollar currency

Tuvalu flag Tuvalu

The Tuvaluan Dollar (TVD) is the unofficial currency of Tuvalu, used alongside the Australian Dollar (AUD), which is the country’s primary legal tender. While Tuvalu issues its own coins, no Tuvaluan banknotes exist, and Australian Dollars are used for all paper currency transactions. The Tuvaluan Dollar is pegged to the Australian Dollar at a 1:1 ratio. Tuvalu’s economy is small and largely reliant on fishing, remittances, and the sale of internet domain names (.tv). Despite having its own coins, TVD is rarely used outside of numismatic purposes.
