In-Depth Information
You won't use euros here; Northern Ireland issues its own Ulster pound, which, like
the Scottish pound, is interchangeable with the English pound (€1 = about £0.80; £1 =
about $1.60). Some establishments near the border may take your euros, but at a lousy ex-
change rate. So keep any euros for your return to the Republic, and get pounds from an
ATM inside Northern Ireland instead. And if you're heading to Britain next, it's best to
change your Ulster pounds into English ones (free at any bank in Northern Ireland, Eng-
land, Wales, or Scotland).
