How to Get Congolese Francs or USD for DRC When Your Card Doesn't Work

A short practical guide for a first visit.

Don't count on Mir card as a primary option in DRC - banking infrastructure is limited outside Kinshasa.

The Democratic Republic of Congo uses Congolese francs (CDF) and US dollars side by side. Visa and Mastercard issued by Russian banks don't work abroad, and Mir card in DRC is not a reliable option. With ATM24, exchanging rubles, dollars, or USDT for CDF or USD is done at a rate confirmed before payment.

Cash at an Office in Russia or Bank Transfer in DRC

Cash can be collected at our offices in 25 cities across Russia. Bank transfer is arranged on request: the available route for your amount is confirmed when you submit.

Commission for Small Exchange Amounts

If the amount is under 30,000 rubles, a fee applies. Check the CDF result in the calculator before paying.

Highest recommendations for this service! Honest exchange, at a good rate, everything fast, without unnecessary hassle like at other exchangers (verification, video confirmation and other crap). Pleasant people to communicate with, respond tactfully to all questions, don't disappear, perform the sequence of actions clearly. I've been in immigration for almost 10 years, traveled many countries, so I can compare. Honest and decent compatriots, especially in money exchange, practically don't exist these days, a rare dying species, as they say. Thank you, guys! It was a pleasure to interact. I will use you again and recommend to friends.
