Know about Trinidad and Tobago currency
In case you are planning a trip to Trinidad and Tobago, knowing a few things about Trinidad and Tobago currency would help. Starting from what the currency is, to where you can exchange foreign currency, whether credit and debit cards are acceptable in various shops and tourist facilities, and if you should use travelers cheques, you need to have all the information to make the most of your Trinidad and Tobago vacation.
Currency information while planning Trinidad and Tobago holiday
Currency of Trinidad and Tobago is denoted by TT$, which is subdivided in 100 cents. While the notes are available in denominations of TT$1, 5, 10, 20, and 100, you can get coins in denominations of 5, 10, 25, as well as 50 cents and TT$1.
For exchanging foreign currency, you will have to reach the authorized banks. A few Tobago hotels are also authorized for the job. Though most shops, banks, and tourist facilities accept Diners Club, MasterCard, Visa, and American Express, it’s advisable to check merchant acceptability with your debit/credit card company, and also ask about other services that you can use during your Trinidad and Tobago holiday. While using your credit cards, you may be charged five per cent in addition to your bill, which is a common practice with many Tobago traders.
Though traveler’s cheques are the most convenient way of transaction, you should remember that a fee will be charged by banks for exchanging them. So, it’s better to check for the best rates to avoid extra exchange rate charges. Using traveler’s cheques in Pounds Sterling or US Dollars is advisable for tourists.
