Democratic Republic of the Congo Currency

Money:

The official currency is the Congolese Franc (CDF). Credit cards have a very limited use, as do traveller cheques, usually only in Kinshasa. It is best to take US dollars in hard currency. Banks are closed on weekends and credit cards cannot be used to obtain cash advances. The economy is highly unstable in the Congo, and therefore denominations of currency and exchange rates are subject to change at short notice.

CDF 100.00 = AED 0.39 A$ 0.10 C$ 0.11 € 0.08 NZ$ 0.13 £ 0.07 US$ 0.11 R 0.89
