what currency is used in zimbabwe

The official currency of Zimbabwe is the Zimbabwean dollar (ZWL), which was reintroduced in 2019 as the RTGS dollar (real-time gross settlement) dollar. However, the economic situation in Zimbabwe remains unpredictable, and both the Zimbabwe dollar and US dollar are currently used. Other currencies that have been used in Zimbabwe include the South African rand, Botswana pula, pound sterling, Indian rupee, euro, Japanese yen, Australian dollar, Chinese yuan, and the United States dollar. It is recommended to check in advance what payment methods a restaurant, hotel, or tour operator will accept, and to ensure that you are being charged in the correct currency. There is also a shortage of physical cash, so it is not always possible to make cash withdrawals using an international bank card.
