Foreign Currency Scheme

This scheme was launched in 2019 with an initial objective of raising £6,000. It has been an incredible success and we have decided to continue this indefinitely. If you have any unwanted foreign money (or in fact any unwanted notes or coins), smaller quantities can be deposited in our yellow collection boxes at numerous locations around the Bailiwick including at Envoy House and Smith Street Post Offices. Larger quantities can be dropped into the BATIF Bureau de Change in St. Peter Port.
