Mozambique - Currency

Money: The official currency is the New Metical (MZN), which is divided into 100 centavos. In the southern parts of the country, South African Rand, US Dollars and Pounds Sterling are also accepted to pay for accommodation. Credit cards are accepted in some upmarket hotels in Maputo, but facilities throughout the rest of the country are limited; it is advisable to carry cash or travellers cheques. ATMs are limited and tend to be unreliable, but local banks have branches in most cities.
MZN 1 = US$ 0.04 £ 0.02 C$ 0.04 A$ 0.05 R 0.35 EUR 0.03 NZ$ 0.06
