Cote d'Ivoire Currency and Money

Cote D'Ivoire Currency and Money: |
Money: The official currency is the CFA Franc (XOF), divided into 100 centimes. The CFA Franc is linked to the Euro. New notes have recently been introduced and the old ones ceased to be legal tender on 31 December 2004; only those issued by the Bank of West African States ( Banque des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest ) are valid currency. There are a few ATMs in Abidjan but most will accept only Visa cards. It is unwise to use an ATM that is not guarded. Credit cards are accepted in the larger hotels and better restaurants. Most shops require cash. Travellers cheques are accepted in banks, as well as some tourist orientated hotels and restaurants.
