The currency used in Scotland is the pound sterling (£), which is used throughout the entire United Kingdom. Scottish banks print their own banknotes, which look different from those in the rest of the UK, but their value is the same. Both Scottish and UK-wide notes can be used throughout Scotland. Scottish coins and banknotes come in denominations of £1 and £2, as well as 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £5, £10, £20, £50, and £100. Scottish banknotes are always accepted in Scotland, but in some parts of the UK, they may not be as easily accepted, so it is recommended to use Scottish banknotes as much as possible while in Scotland and reserve the Bank of England pounds if planning to visit the rest of Britain. All major credit cards can also be used across Scotland, with Visa and MasterCard being the most widely accepted. Foreign currency is rarely accepted, but it is easy to exchange any foreign currency in Scotland. Banks, hotels, and Bureau de Change kiosks can be found at international airports and in most city centers.
