One request for the pair you need — USD to DKK at the official Danmarks Nationalbank rate:

curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/central-bank/dnb/latest?source=USD&target=DKK" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key"

What comes back — a real response built from the table in force (2026-10-26):

{
  "bank": "dnb",
  "name": "Danmarks Nationalbank",
  "rate_date": "2026-10-26",
  "source": "USD",
  "target": "DKK",
  "rate": 6.681,
  "rate_type": "reference",

  "age_days": 1,
  "stale": false,
  "cadence": "daily",
  "disclaimer": "Official rates as published by the named central bank. On weekends/holidays the most recent published rate_date is returned."
}

Or the bank's full published table:

curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/central-bank/dnb/latest" \

Node.js / TypeScript client

A dedicated zero-dependency npm package wraps these endpoints — danmarks-nationalbank-exchange-rate:

npm install danmarks-nationalbank-exchange-rate
import { getRate } from 'danmarks-nationalbank-exchange-rate';

const pair = await getRate('USD', 'DKK', { apiKey: 'art_live_...' });
console.log(pair.rate, pair.rate_date);

Zero dependencies, TypeScript types included, and it runs anywhere fetch exists — Node 18+, Bun, Deno, and edge runtimes.

Why use the official Danmarks Nationalbank rate?

A market rate is a moving target; the rate Danmarks Nationalbank publishes is a fixed, citable figure that stays put once printed — which is why invoicing, customs, audit evidence, and statutory accounting in Denmark lean on it rather than on a live feed. Every response from this API carries the bank's own rate_date, and on days with no publication you get the most recent published table — the one compliance rules tell you to apply.

Pairs the bank doesn't print directly are resolved from its table (inverse or cross via DKK) and explicitly flagged "derived": true — so what the bank printed and what was computed are never confused.

Endpoints

Full parameter reference in the API documentation. Every request counts toward your plan's monthly quota — rates change once per business day, so caching a published table locally makes a small quota go far.
