Buy Tunisian Dinars (TND) Before Travelling to Tunisia
Planning a long and exotic trip to Tunisia? Preparing well is key to making the most of your stay, including understanding local customs and day-to-day practices. One of the most important aspects to consider is the use of local currency.
To travel with peace of mind, we recommend bringing some cash in Tunisian Dinars (TND), the country’s official currency. To do so, it’s best to convert your euros to dinars before departure to secure the most favourable EUR/TND exchange rate.
Tips
A budget of around 140 TND per person will typically cover a night’s accommodation, one restaurant meal and another from a fast-food outlet, as well as transport.
Tipping is not mandatory in Tunisia, but it’s appreciated – a 10% tip is considered generous. A traditional meal in a mid-range restaurant will cost about 25 TND, while a fast-food option is around 10 TND.

- Coins: 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 millimes; ½, 1, 5 TND
