Paper money is in denominations of 30, 20, 10 and 5. Coins are in denominations of 5 &1TDN, and 500, 100, 50, 20, 10 and 5 millimes. English pounds, US Dollars, and Euros are all widely accepted at banks, hotels, and the change counter at the airports. There really is not one that is better than the other. Just a quick note: Tunisia is one of the few places in the world where you will get a better exchange rate at most hotels than you will at a bank. Keep that in mind when you are changing your money. Tunisian currency is not a fully convertible currency as of yet, so therefore it can only be purchased inside of Tunisia. Travelers’ checks and credit cards ar
