Major FAQ-India

Money Matters

What is the exchange rate? Where should I change my dollar? Can I use debit card and/or credit card? Should I bring traveler's check?

Exchange Rate of Indian Rupee (INR) info is available at: http://www.xe.com/ucc/

The local currency is the Indian Rupee. You can change your money upon arrival inside the Delhi International Airport. There are many banks inside the Delhi International Airport. We suggest you exchange only $200 in the beginning as you can change money in any bank (some banks are near to IFRE's office). To exchange Rupees back to US Dollars (during departure), you need to show receipts from authorized banks to document these exchanges.

Debit cards are the best way to spend money and there are ATMs available close to our Indian office. Visa, MasterCard and American Express are accepted in some of the large stores and hotels in larger cities but may not be widely accepted in smaller cities.

How much money you bring depends on your personal spending habits. IFRE covers most costs associated with your program, but do bring some spending money to help you to explore India in your free time and for your personal use.

Do ensure you notify your bank of your intent to travel and expected arrival/departure dates. This will save you the hassle of your account being flagged with fraudulent activity.
