Community MMK rates refresh — 17 Oct 2026 (USD ~4,500 · THB ~138)

Myanmar workers abroad often see more than one MMK number on payday. Today’s MMKHub homepage refresh uses unofficial / community / ground orientation quotes — the range many chat groups and ground desks talk about — not the bank remittance board alone.

Hub display — 17 Oct 2026 (Asia/Rangoon)

Pair Community / ground (MMK)
1 USD ≈ 4,500
1 THB ≈ 138
1 SGD ≈ 3,640
1 AUD ≈ 3,150
1 NZD ≈ 2,515

Bank / official boards are a different layer

Do not mix these with bank screenshots without labelling them:

  • CBM reference for USD often sits near ~2,100 — an accounting/reference board, not what most wage senders plan with.
  • Bank trading / counter style USD frequently sits near ~3,660–3,670 (e.g. CB Bank–style boards in mid-October research).
  • Worker remittance boards from major banks in mid-October were still clustered near the high-3,900s for USD — useful, but not identical to today’s community chatter.

If those three layers confuse you, start here: Three MMK Numbers on Payday: Remittance, Bank Counter, and Community Quotes.

What to do before you send

  1. Open the live homepage rates and note the date.
  2. Ask your agent or wallet for the MMK that will arrive after fees — not only the headline FX.
  3. Prefer licensed banks / known wallets over strangers in chat for large sums.
  4. Screenshot the quote with time before you hit send.
