Banks and currency exchange
In Baku, banks work from 9.00-9.30 AM till 5 PM. You can exchange currency in banks, hotels and numerous exchange offices. A number of stores have their own exchange desks.
Currency
The national currency of Azerbaijan is the Azerbaijani manat.
The rate of the national currency is:
1 USD= 1.69 AZN
1 EUR= 1.92 AZN
In general, credit cards payments can only be made in large supermarkets in the capital, in certain hotels and in banks. In the regions, it is virtually impossible to use credit cards.
Tips
In many restaurants, customers are expected to leave 5-10% of the sum; in this is not indicated in the menu, you can add 10% to the bill (doing so in advance may sometimes speed up the service). You can give porters at the airport of hotel 5-10 manats, depending on the amount of your baggage. Passengers are not expected to tip the taxi drivers, and it is recommended to negotiate the fare in advance (taxi drivers do not generally accept foreign currency). Bargaining can be useful anywhere, especially in private stores and at markers – with good bargaining skills it should not be too hard to reduce the price by half.
Voltage
Utility-supplied voltage is 220/240 V/60 Hz. Standard sockets are Type C sockets with two pins. The system of measurement is the metric system.
