    Hi Folks

    I'm travelling to Georgia in May. None of the banks or AnPost sell it so does anyone know if any company is selling Georgian Lari in Ireland?

    Kind regards.

    Not that I could see. I just went to the ATM when I got to Tbilisi. I didn't even use much cash in Tbilisi. I just used my Curve card.

    ask the Georgian community in Ireland,some might have some left over after recent trips.

    I couldn't buy lari outside of Georgia from the UAE. When you land at the airport there's about 10 exchange hubs at arrivals

    Thanks for those suggestions. I'll probably wait until I get to Tbilisi airport. I just like to have cash with me as I know those Euromat ATMs can charge a fortune. Thanks

    Dont get it at the airport, you'll be fleeced, there's plenty of FX guys in shops that will have a good rate.
