Cuban Convertible pesos will
remain at par with the US dollar at an exchange
rate of 1 for 1.1124.
All payments in the establishments
operating in foreign exchange in Cuba must be
made with convertible pesos.
You may exchange Euros, Canadian
dollars, pounds sterling or Swiss francs for convertible
pesos. The exchange rates for those currencies
are set in accord with the exchange rates on the
international market.
You may also exchange US dollars
for convertible pesos, but a service charge of
10 percent will be levied, to protect Cuba's economic
interests.
Euros will still be used in
the following tourist resorts: Varadero; the Jardines
del Rey Archipelago; Holguín; Santa Lucía
Beach, in Camagüey; Covarrubias Beach, in
Las Tunas; and Cayo Largo del Sur |
