Uzbekistani Som (UZS) Overview
The Uzbekistani som (UZS) is the official currency of Uzbekistan, a country in Central Asia. The currency is issued and regulated by the Central Bank of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The som was introduced in 1994, following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, replacing the Soviet ruble at a rate of 1 som = 1,000 rubles. Since then, the currency has undergone several redenominations and reforms to stabilize its value.
The som is subdivided into 100 tiyin, although tiyin coins are rarely used in practice due to their low value. Banknotes are issued in denominations of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 50,000, and 100,000 som, while coins are available in denominations of 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1,000 som. The currency symbol is "so'm" or "UZS" in international contexts.
Uzbekistan's economy is characterized by its agricultural sector, particularly cotton production, as well as natural gas and gold exports. The exchange rate of the som is influenced by these commodity prices, as well as by government policies and international market conditions. As with any currency, the value of the som can fluctuate, and it is advisable to check current exchange rates before conducting financial transactions.
