Don’t forget to buy your Chinese yuan (CNY) before you leave for China.

You are about to visit one of the oldest civilization in history? What a great trip, be prepared to have a change of scenery! We always advise you to be well framed for a trip and to plan everything, such as your daily and overall budget. Consequently, it is important to be familiar with the use of the local currency. In China, the official currency is the Chinese yuan (CNY). We suggest that you exchange an amount of dollars for Chinese Yuan before your departure to ensure that you have enough cash in the local currency for situations that require it once you arrive there. Before exchanging, be sure to check the NZD to CNY exchange rate to get the best deal for your travel money.
