Where to Buy UAE Dirhams in India?

The most conventional method for buying US dollars is visiting a bank. Moreover, there may be a possibility that even after standing in long queues, you might not get the favorable rate.

Local Money Changers

An Authorized money changer often provides competitive rates. However, the rates are not fixed. The process can be quite frustrating and is not the best way to buy US dollars.

Airports

Buying US dollars from the airport should be your last resort. As airports offer extremely high USD exchange rates, it is not an ideal choice.

How to Identify Counterfeit UAE Dirham Notes?

To identify counterfeit UAE Dirham notes, examine the security features closely. Genuine notes have raised print, color-shifting ink, a watermark of the national emblem, and a security thread that changes color under light. Use a UV light to check for invisible security patterns and fluorescent elements. Check the note’s texture – real currency feels crisp and slightly rough due to intaglio printing. Always compare with a verified original note and avoid transactions in poorly lit or unverified locations.
