Exchange.  Or, depending on the situation, you could colloquially just say "change".

 Is it a must to go to the Currency Exchange to change money in your country?
 Aren't there any bank offers this service?
 
 Thank you;>

There are a few banks that do this service, but not many.  Most commercial banks we use on a regular basis for checking and savings accounts and loans do not.  I have no idea where I could go in my neighborhood to change dollars to yen, pounds, or euros.  I would just do it at the airport.

				| Just curious, can you exchange dollars *into* another currency? I mean does the sentence sound right?

				| You can "change into" another currency but you "exchange for." Make that edit and then you're fine. |  |
