In connection with the unprofitable exchange rate at the moment, the following question has arisen: is it possible to exchange rubles for local currency in Punta Cana? Where can I do this?

Responds information department of "Subtlety of Tourism"
Unfortunately, rubles in Punta Cana are not accepted and exchanged in the entire Dominican Republic is extremely problematic..It is believed that it is more profitable to come to the country with dollars than with EUR .Currency can be exchanged everywhere - in hotels, banks, shops, exchange offices and even pharmacies .However, changing all the money at once is not worth it: in souvenir shops, restaurants and supermarkets you can often pay in dollars - $ .At the same time, the rate will be much less than the official rate - if you do not want to overpay, exchange the currency in advance at any bank, or in any other way convenient to you..By the way, the ruble's exchange rate against the dollar is slightly higher than the similar rate of the Dominican peso .

ATMs are almost everywhere, they work around the clock, they accept all kinds of plastic cards and issue only Dominican pesos.
