Chinese currency?
Does anyone know where can we get some Chinese currency on the island,help would be much appreciated.
Re: Chinese currency?
If you need it because you’re travelling I suggest ordering on line & collecting from airport.
Re: Chinese currency?
Thanks Cactuslil,it would help us very much if you could explain how we go about this,like who do we log into to order the currency and where do we collect it.We are flying Larnaca to Doha then on to Biejing.Thanks again.
Re: Chinese currency?
I did it through Travelex & collected from Manchester airport before flying on. There is a minimum spend but can’t remember how much it is.Hope this helps.

Do no Banks in Cyprus have Chinese currency, I see quite a few Chinese people over here, dont they change their money for euros?

Re: Chinese currency?
If you go to the website of Beijing airport you will see that there are plenty ATM machines and exchange machines.
To provide you with RMB, major foreign currency denominations, credit card services, and to handle domestic bills of exchange, checks, exchanges and international exchanges, foreign currency exchange, and sales of travel cheques; ATM automatic in many places in the terminal building Cash machine and automatic currency exchange machine.

Just a suggestion. Go to a Large Bank and just ask them if they do it and what the rate of exchange is.
All things are possible

Lincoln,WHL,, I thought that as there was now lot of Chinese moving to the island they would be bringing with them the Chinese Yuan and changing it at the banks for eoro,s so the banks would have some Yuan they could sell me.,,,,Rocket science??? Wrong, i was met with a definate NO and a shrug of the shoulders when I asked to buy some Yuan...Back to the drawing board.

Chaddy was this a main branch, surely they could order you some in from their head office?Chaddy wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2019 12:21 pm Lincoln,WHL,, I thought that as there was now lot of Chinese moving to the island they would be bringing with them the Chinese Yuan and changing it at the banks for eoro,s so the banks would have some Yuan they could sell me.,,,,Rocket science???

Re: Chinese currency?
I would suggest taking USD with you as they should be very easy to exchange at a bank in China or in Hong Kong if you are going there.

No banks have Chinese currency and no kiosks have it.Its like getting gold of gold dust
Re: Chinese currency?
Dee is right. They love foreign currency! We bought things with sterling and they are very willing to accept it! Or, they were when we went a few years ago.
Re: Chinese currency?
Thanks darrow,did you travel to the interior,and spend foreign currency there.
Re: Chinese currency?
Yes. They were also willing to sell sterling for yuan . We went in 2008 so it might have changed. I doubt you need to worry too much. The Chinese are international travellers and currency exchange isn't an issue these days.
