Likewise, Fruitcake. It’s much easier to change euros into the foreign currency at the airport of arrival, and thereafter at local banks. It also means you can budget better, taking only 500€ spending money, say, and changing it as you need it.
Thank you all for the info. Obviously it would not be a problem if we were going to an airport or port but we aren’t. We need Danish Krone to send for grandchildren’s Christmas presents. I know we can also do a bank transfer but unfortunately that costs quite a bit.
Your bank should offer a low charge transfer but the exchange rate will be not very good.
I suggest you use Transferwise the current exchange rate using the French site is as below and the charge for 1000 euro is 6.37 euro or 50 euro is 1.37 euro.
If you decide to use them I can recommend you as a friend and there should be no charge for your first transaction, please PM if you are interested
1 EUR → 7,46135 DKK
Small sums I’d send by PayPal
But I don’t share the fear of sending cash through the post which is sooooooo much better for a kids gift, have a look here for a list of BdeCs
