Your dirhams.
Your stay in Paris.

Can you use the same banknotes in both countries?+

They are different currencies. Moroccan and UAE dirhams are not interchangeable. Specify your destination when planning an exchange.

Do both dirhams have the same value?+

No. A shared name does not mean an equal exchange rate. Always specify MAD or AED and the direction of the exchange when comparing amounts.

How much will I receive in euros?+

The exchange office will confirm the amount you will receive in euros and any fees. The calculator provides an estimate using the office’s rates loaded when the page opens. Prepare your currency exchange in Paris →
