How much travel currency should I carry? We highly recommend that you take approximately $400 in travel currency cash to get your trip off to the right start. You should get enough travel currency for at least a couple of days, especially if you are arriving on the weekend or public holidays. If you don’t plan ahead, you will encounter the inconvenience of having to find locations to exchange money throughout your visit, as well as service fees you will have to pay each time. Should I bring anything other than cash? You should consider carrying your funds several different ways when travelling. Bring a convenient amount of travel currency in cash, an internationally accepted credit or debit card, and travellers cheques. What is a Euro? The Euro is the official currency of 16 of the 27 member states of the European Union. The states, collectively known as the Eurozone, are Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, The Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia and Spain.
