Change-Exchange Money in Turkey
The official currency of Turkey is Turkish Lira (TRY) bank notes. You can officially make your payments into Turkish Lira in every city of Turkey. When you arrive in Turkey, you need to convert your money into Turkish lira to shop and meet other needs. When you convert your money into Turkish lira, you can spend like the local people and you don’t have to make calculations. You can use exchange offices to convert your money into Turkish lira.
You will find the Lira notes in denominations of 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 Liras. There is also a 1-lira coin, which is equivalent to 100 Kurus.
A money changer in Istanbul is called a change office by locals. When you see the word “doviz“, which means foreign exchange, in front of a place, then you know that you are going to walk past a change office.
Exchange offices are available in many parts of Istanbul. There are many exchange offices around the Grand Bazaar and Spice Bazaar. For example, “Zeki Döviz” is 20 meters away from the Spice Bazaar. You can easily change your money at this exchange office. Contact information and location link below.
