Can I exchange US dollars on Maldives Island?

Generally, the front desk of a resort hotel can exchange US dollars. If you find that you have run out of change, you can ask the hotel front desk if you can exchange it. The waiter will exchange it with you enthusiastically, because they receive a lot of tips every day on the island, so most hotels have no problem changing money.

Other places to exchange US dollars

1. Male Airport

There is a local bank in Male Airport that can exchange small amounts of US dollars. The exchange rate is based on the day. Passengers who arrive early will generally have no problem changing them, but passengers who arrive at the airport after 5 pm may not be able to change them, either closing the door or changing them, so you can make preparations in advance according to the flight time. It doesn't matter if you can't get it at the airport bank. There are many shops and restaurants in the airport. Just pick a local specialty product you like or eat a delicious meal at will, and a small amount of dollars will be available!

2. What should I do if I can't exchange a small amount of US dollars in the resort hotel

on the island? It doesn't matter, the specialty shops on the island can solve it. You can buy one or two items with island characteristics as a gift, so you can ask for as much change as possible when looking for money. However, I would like to remind you that the commodity shops on the island are much more expensive than Male Airport, so it is better to plan ahead.

3. Find a friend to exchange money

It would be great if you have friends who go abroad frequently. You can ask them if they have any extra dollars to exchange for you, so you don't have to exchange them back and forth!
