The Haitian gourde is the currency of the Republic of Haiti, a Caribbean country bordered by the Dominican Republic. Haiti has two official languages, French and Haitian Creole, which can be found on Haitian banknotes.

The gourde's currency code is HTG, and the main issuing bank is the Bank of the Republic of Haiti, which took over the National Bank in 1979.

The gourde is divided into centimes, which equal one-hundredth of a gourde. It is available in denominations of 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, and 1,000 gourdes. Haitian coins are available in 5, 10, 20, and 50-centime denominations, as well as 1- and 5-gourde coins.

The Haitian currency is called the gourde, abbreviated as HTG. Named after a type of local drum, the gourde has been in use since Haiti's independence from France in 1804. It replaced the livre, the former colonial currency, and was initially pegged to the French franc. Today, the gourde is issued and regulated by the Bank of the Republic of Haiti. The currency comes in both coins and banknotes, with banknotes featuring important historical and cultural figures, as well as national symbols. Despite challenges including inflation and economic instability, the gourde remains a vital part of Haiti's economy, facilitating daily transactions and serving as a symbol of the nation’s financial identity.
