What currency does Gabon use in Africa?

The currency of Gabon is the Central African franc.

Both the dollar and the euro are circulating.

Note that only Libreville (the capital of Gabon) has ATMs and only accepts Visa cards, so bring enough cash.

Also, if you bring dollars and euros, you'd better prepare a lot of small bills, because there is a shortage of small bills and it is not easy to change them into loose money (dollars and euros).

As for credit cards, except in five-star hotels or ATMs, they are basically rubbish.

Outside Libreville, cash is everything.

The China franc is pegged to the euro, and 1 euro can be converted into 655.957 China francs.
