The huge toman/rial confusion!
That’s essential to know sooner than going to Iran! The official foreign exchange of Iran is in rial. Nonetheless, prices are usually quoted in toman. So, when a taxi driver says 7… He means 70.000 toman or 700.000 rial. It’s quite simple, and I promise you’ll get the cling of it on the first day! In hostels/guesthouses, the fees are usually quoted in USD. Always ask the value in rial as properly.
Carry a great deal of cash!
Sadly, at this second it’s nonetheless nearly unimaginable to get money in Iran. This suggests no monetary establishment change and no ATM to utilize. Subsequently, it’s essential to convey adequate journey money plus some emergency money. The alternate value in Iran is so much higher than the worldwide alternate expenses quoted on as an example xe.com Thus, change euro’s in rials when you’re there!
In case you do get into points and likewise you run out of money in Iran, then these are your decisions:
- Borrow money from totally different vacationers (you’ll need VPN to modify the money though… so receive a VPN app like Vypr sooner than you go)
- Buy a carpet and ask for added cash money (20% payment. so hardly a solution)
- Go to all banks. An Italian couple come what may managed to get cash with their financial institution card, so there may be some potentialities.
- Try the reception desk on the Firouzeh Resort in Tehran (further probably that may make it easier to when you’re actually staying there).
On this put up I used the current exhange value in Iran: 1 euro: 39.000 rial (june 2016)
Not included: the 700 USD that was stolen from my backpack 🙁
