According to a Forbes report, the Indonesian rupiah entered the ranks of the world's weakest currencies in early April 2026.

Forbes defines a "weak currency" as money that can only buy a small amount of US dollars (US$).

As of April 7, 2026, 1,000 rupiah could only buy US$0.059. This figure makes the rupiah the fifth weakest currency among all the currencies observed by Forbes.

Meanwhile, in first place is the Iranian rial, with an exchange rate of 1,000 rials equivalent to just US$0.001.

"The value of the Iranian rial has fallen sharply in the wake of the recent conflict between Iran, Israel and the US," Forbes said in its report.

Here is the full list of the 10 weakest currencies in the world as of April 7, 2026, according to Forbes, sorted from the weakest:

1,000 Iranian rials = US$0.001
1,000 Lebanese pounds = US$0.011
1,000 Vietnamese dong = US$0.038
1,000 Laotian kips = US$0.045
1,000 Indonesian rupiah = US$0.059
1,000 Uzbek som = US$0.082
1,000 Guinean francs = US$0.114
1,000 Paraguayan guaranis = US$0.154
1,000 Malagasy ariary = US$0.239
1,000 Burundian francs = US$0.336
