Currency Exchange Alert: Don't Let This Happen To You!

[libya 115]

If this post helps just a few people, it shall be worth it:

For those persons departing from Doha International Airport in Qatar, please be aware that there is no currency exchange booths or banks within the departure building.

If you have a fist full of Qatari Riyals; then you will be stuck with them; or else can spend them in the duty-free.

Change your money in Qatar high street banks before leaving the country.

You guessed it; I got stuck with US$ 2000 worth of Qatari currency.

The only consolation is that there is one ATM machine in the departures hall that will offer US$ or EURO's.

I was fortunate, I was returning to Qatar, so kept hold of the Qatari Riyals. Incidentally a very poor exchange rate is offered for Qatari Riyals (outside) of Qatar.

In Thailand a preposterous exchange rate is offered at BKK airport for Middle East currencies.
