|
|
I'm starting a job in Tashkent and have been told I can withdraw US dollars from the ATM there (for example, to pay rent). Most information I've read online says that ATMs often either don't work, or are empty. I will have a local bank account into which part of my salary will be paid, so the bank card will be issued in Uzbekistan. Does anyone have any recent experience with trying to get USD in Tashkent? (Exchanging on the black market will cost me double the official rate I'll be paid in, so that's my last option).
Thanks for any information! |

The ATM's are still spotty, but that's not a problem. ATM's that give US dollars might be difficult to find, if they even exist at all anymore.

If you're a foreigner, TRASTBANK will give you the choice of either obtaining US dollars or Uzbek money from your foreign bank card. |
