What you need to know about the currency Euro
The euro is official in: Germany, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Croatia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Andorra, Vatican City, Kosovo, Monaco, Montenegro, and San Marino.
The euro is the currency of the European Union and its symbol is €. It was introduced in 2002 and replaced the peseta or the franc, among others. In January 1999, it replaced the ECU (European Currency Unit) and began to be used as a virtual currency for non-monetary payments.
There are seven denominations of euro banknotes: 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500 euros. They are identical in all the countries of the eurozone and feature iconic buildings that represent European culture and diversity. They were designed by Robert Kalina from the OeNB.
The euro coins in circulation are 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50 cents, as well as 1 and 2 euros. All share the same obverse, but the reverse is national and identifies the issuing country. The European Central Bank (ECB) decides the total value of currency issued in each state.
346 million people use the euro. The figure would increase if countries like Bulgaria or Poland complete their accession process to the EU. This implies the disappearance of their currencies, although there is a voluntary opt-out clause to retain it. This is the case of Denmark.
Not all countries in the eurozone adopted the euro as their official currency at the same time. Spain was one of the first to incorporate it, while the last to replace its national currency has been Croatia in 2023. Currently, there are 20 countries with the euro as their official currency.

Any questions? We will resolve them for you:
What is the best exchange rate from Australian dollars to Euro?
Euro exchange rates fluctuate and change daily. You can check the exchange rate of the day in the information panel of our calculator by selecting Australian dollars to Euros rate or in any of Global Exchange offices.
Will I be charged a commission for changing my Australian dollars into Euro?
No, Global Exchange does not charge any commissions or fees for exchanging Australian dollars to Euros. All transactions (at the offices or online) worth AUD 1,000 or above are fee-free. We only have a small margin, which is lower when you change your currency online than when you change it in person at the airport.
Do I get the same Australian dollar to Euro exchange rate in this website or in any of your offices?
No, the Australian dollar to Euros exchange rate that applies to orders placed on the Global Exchange website in Australia is more advantageous to you than at the airport offices. This ensures you get the best exchange rates online. If you need more information or have any questions, please contact our contact form.
How will I be delivered the Euro I ordered online?
After placing your Click & Collect order online, you can collect it from our offices at Sydney Airport. As well as getting the best exchange rate for your online exchange (more travel cash for the same price), this service saves you time and reduces anxiety, as you'll have the currency you need ready for your trip abroad.
Why does the Australian dollar to Euro exchange rate seem cheaper and more attractive in the Internet than in exchange businesses?
The euro exchange rates shown in Internet currency converters are for currency wholesalers (foreign exchange transactions for financial and international trade companies), not for the public. Those cheaper rates are for the foreign exchange, not for currency exchange operations in cash.
What is the difference between foreign exchange and currency exchange?
Foreign exchange (Forex, for short) is the market that establishes the value of the currencies in which international transactions will be performed, at a wholesale level. Currency exchange, on the other hand, is the market in which individual currencies are sold in retail on a certain price depending on demand. Currency exchange entails cash transactions, thus adding logistic costs, and therefore their exchange rates are somewhat “worse” than the Forex rates, which only move money between accounts.
What is the difference of changing my Australian dollars to Euros with you or at a bank?
Banks charge margins and commissions, and you will have to go twice: to order the money and to pick it up. At Global Exchange you can place your foreign currency order online and pick up your foreign currency order at the airport before boarding.
