How and Where to Exchange

  • Use licensed exchange bureaus (often in shopping centres and near major hotels). They provide receipts and consistent procedures.
  • Find locations via Google Maps: open map search.
  • Avoid informal street exchange even if the rate looks better. Licensed bureaus are safer and more predictable.

What to Bring

  • Passport or valid ID — some places will require it.
  • Cash in good condition; smaller notes can help for change.

Checking Rates

Before you exchange, compare the bureau’s rate with an online reference to understand the spread. Check reference rates.
