The Central Bank of Kosovo (Albanian: Banka Qendrore e Republikës së Kosovës, Serbian: Централна банка Републике Косова / Centralna banka Republike Kosova, BQK in Albanian and CBK in English) is the central bank of Kosovo. It was established in 2008 as successor of the Banking and Payments Authority of Kosovo (Autoriteti Bankar dhe i Pagesave të Kosovës or BPK, 1999-2006) and Central Banking Authority of Kosovo (Autoriteti Qendror Bankar i Kosovës or AQBK, 2006-2008).
The official currency in Kosovo is the Euro, which was unilaterally adopted by the United Nations administration for Kosovo in 2002; however, Kosovo is not a member of the Eurozone. The headquarters of the CBK are located in the capital of Kosovo, Pristina.
