What is the exchange rate? Where should I change my dollars? Can I use a debit card or credit card? Should I bring travelers checks?
The US dollar became legal tender in Ecuador March 13, 2000 and sucre notes ceased being legal tender on September 11. Sucre notes remained exchangeable at Banco Central until March 30, 2001 at 25,000 sucres per dollar. Ecuador now only issues only its own centavo coins.
