Coming back from the UK with savings in pounds? One detail will save you some stress. Banknotes with Queen Elizabeth II are still valid — the new King Charles III notes simply circulate alongside them. But the Bank of England withdrew the paper £20 and £50 notes back in September 2022: UK shops no longer accept them, and they can only be exchanged through the Bank of England itself. So before you change your pounds, check your wallet: we accept Bank of England polymer notes, but not paper, Scottish or Northern Irish ones.
At Valuta Exchange you know the British pound to PLN rate before you visit, from 1,000 GBP the wholesale rate applies, and once you place an online order we guarantee your rate for 1 hour — with no commission. Book your rate online and collect your złoty at our branch in Warsaw or Kraków.
