Money
(Click

Though Cambodian riel is the official
currency, US dollars are currently the de facto tender in Cambodia.
Most businesses, especially hotels, restaurants, airlines, markets
and souvenir shops set their prices in US dollars. Change of less
than one dollar is given in riel. Always carry some small riel for
minor purchases. 500 and 1000 riel note are the most common and
useful denominations. Money changers cluster around the markets and
tend to give a slightly better exchange rate than the banks. When
accepting money, inspect the bills. Marred riel is acceptable
tender, but the tiniest tear in a large US note renders it unusable
in Cambodia.
ATMs Phnom Penh now has dozens of ATMs located all across
town. Easily spotted, the distinctive blue ANZ Royal Bank
ATMs accept Cirrus, Plus, Maestro, Visa, MasterCard and ANZ
Cards. All ATMs dispenses US dollars For locations see the ATM icon

credit cards in Cambodia. MasterCard and AMEX are coming into wider
use. Many places charge commission on credit card payment.
Travelers Checks Travelers checks are accepted at most banks,
major hotels and restaurants and some money changers. AMEX in US
dollars are the most widely accepted travelers checks.
