EDIT:
I’m just waiting for Josias to come back to me with some advice on the best way to take money to Burundi. He just has so I have updated this page,.
I've just been told by the finance office in Burundi to bring US Dollars, however Josias did say there are ATM's about. So I'm going to do both.
Apparently up until 2009 there were no ATM’s in Burundi but now there quite a few in Bujumbura. Interbank and ECObank being mentioned quite a lot.
You can’t get Burundi Francs (BIF) outside of Burundi and there is a limit of 2000 BIF (about 90p) that you are allowed to take out or bring into the country.
Don’t forget to ring up your credit card company or bank to enable your card to be used internationally… there is a stop on most cards as a security precaution.
