Bank of England TRY/GBP spot rate, 30 July 2026

The Bank of England daily spot exchange rate for Turkish Lira (TRY) on 30 July 2026 is 63.6551 TRY per £1. To convert a TRY amount to sterling, divide by 63.6551.

HMRC's Capital Gains Manual (CG78310) says to convert each amount at the exchange rate in force on the date of the transaction, and expects a reasonable and consistent method; it doesn't name a source. The Bank of England daily spot rate is the fixing for that date, so it matches the guidance directly. Use it for every figure in the computation (the cost, buying and selling costs, and the proceeds) and keep the same method for later disposals and tax years.

The Bank of England daily spot rate is the mid-market rate recorded at 4pm on a specific date. The HMRC monthly rate is one rate that HMRC sets for the whole calendar month and publishes in advance. Because they are measured differently they can differ, and on a large disposal the gap can change the sterling gain by thousands of pounds. That is why the method should be chosen once and applied consistently, not picked disposal by disposal.

The Bank of England only fixes rates on UK working days. For a weekend or bank holiday, the usual approach is the nearest earlier fixing. TealFX applies it only within 7 days and says so whenever it does; the API can also refuse a substitute date (fallback=none).

The Bank of England publishes daily spot rates through its statistical database at bankofengland.co.uk. TealFX imports them from that database, so the figures on this page match the Bank's published data. The Bank states these spot rates are not official rates.
