Currency Exchange
US Dollars are widely accepted and
exchanged as are Thai Baht close to
the Thai border, but other
currencies are generally only
recognised at banks.
Credit/Debit Cards and ATMs
Credit cards are now more widely
accepted in upmarket hotels, shops
and restaurants catering to
visitors. There are ATMs in Phnom
Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville.
It is always best to carry cash (US
Dollars if necessary) in small
denominations.

Limited acceptance. Traveller's
cheques are generally not
recommended. Traveller's cheques in
US Dollars can be changed at banks
and some hotels, but can be
difficult to change outside major
cities.

open on Saturdays 0800-1130.
