BANKS

Banking hours are from 8.00am to 2.00 pm Mondays to Fridays. Banks in hotels usually stay open longer hours while Money Changers are generally open everyday until late evening.

Major currencies can be exchanged in most banks, money changers and hotels. There is often a different rate for any notes smaller than US$100 and this applies to most currencies. Note: Most banks and money changers only accept US bank notes made in 1997 onwards.

If cashing Travelers checks you will require your passport. We suggest you take a photo-copy and leave your original passport in the safe.
