The local currency is the Tanzanian Shilling that is valid on Zanzibar, Pemba and the Tanzanian mainland.
We recommend exchanging your home currency to US dollars before departure to avoid bank charges. However, many places and we are accepting USD, Euro. Please note that the US dollar shouldn’t be older than 2006, because of the poorer exchange rate. At most bureau de change, larger notes fetch a better exchange rate than the smaller notes.
