Belgrade Currency & Exchange

The legal tender in Serbia is the dinar (RSD, динар, pl. dinari/динари). Coins are minted in values of 1, 2, 5, 10, and 20 dinars, and banknotes are printed in values of 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, and 5000 dinars. The banknotes appear to be more common than the coins, so be prepared to carry around a large number of banknotes.

Money can be exchanged at official exchange offices, locally called menjačnica, often carrying the emblem of the National Bank of Serbia outside the building. The rates here are usually better than those offered at banks. It is much easier to convert Euros or other major currencies. There are many ATMs, which accept foreign bank and credit cards without any issues. Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard and Maestro are widely accepted. However, American Express and Diners Club cards are rarely accepted.
