Currency exchange operations

Currently, there are no restrictions on the purchase of cash foreign currency at bank cash desks and ATMs. However, please note that the maximum transaction amount when making purchases through ATMs is limited to $100. In addition, when buying foreign currency in excess of $100, an identity document (citizen's passport/identity card/new driver's license/military ID/residence permit) must be presented at the currency exchange office.

The rates for buying and selling foreign currency are set by commercial banks independently, taking into account the supply and demand for foreign currency, and these rates may be changed by commercial banks several times during a business day.

In the process of accepting dilapidated (old, damaged, stained, etc.) currencies, banks may charge a fee. This is normal, since banks have their own certain costs when they change them for new banknotes.

Most ATMs do not accept coins and dispense only banknotes, starting with the lowest denomination - 1,000 soums in the case of Uzbekistan. This means that if a client needs change less than 1,000 soums, the ATM will not be able to dispense it. This may result in a difference between the exchange rate at the exchange office and the rate set at the ATM.

ATMs accept old and partially damaged banknotes, however, the level of sensitivity to the state of the currency leaves much to be desired. For the exchange of such banknotes at the exchange office, a commission of up to 5% may be charged, depending on their condition. Banks take into account the weight of overdue and damaged banknotes, which increases the cost of servicing accepted banknotes and affects the exchange rate set at the ATM.
