About Tanzanian Shilling (TSh)
The Tanzanian Shilling (TZS, ISO 4217 code 834, symbol TSh) is the official currency of the United Republic of Tanzania (mainland Tanzania + Zanzibar), issued by the Bank of Tanzania (BoT, est. 1965).

Banknotes: TSh500, TSh1,000, TSh2,000, TSh5,000, TSh10,000 (highest denomination; current series introduced 2010-2011 features Tanzanian wildlife — giraffe, elephant, rhino, lion — and Mount Kilimanjaro at 5,895m, Africa's highest peak); coins: TSh50, TSh100, TSh200, TSh500. Tanzania is one of East Africa's largest economies (~$84B GDP in 2024) and a major exporter of gold (Africa's 4th-largest gold producer), tanzanite (the only commercial source globally — found exclusively at Merelani Hills near Mount Kilimanjaro), coffee, cashews, and cotton. Tourism contributes significantly (Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Zanzibar archipelago, Kilimanjaro climbing). The BoT targets 5% CPI inflation. Tanzania uses a managed-float exchange rate regime. The East African Community (EAC) has long-term plans for monetary integration with Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi.
