Frequently asked questions
Is it better to use a card or withdraw cash for Turkish Lira?
For most travelers, a card with no foreign transaction fee is the simplest and cheapest option - provided you always choose to pay in Turkish Lira (the local currency) rather than Japanese Yen. Choosing your home currency triggers Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC), which typically adds 3-5% on top. If you need cash, withdraw from ATMs in-country rather than exchanging at airports.
Why is JPY/TRY so volatile?

Central Bank of Turkey interest rate decisions, inflation data, and geopolitical developments are the primary drivers. TRY has depreciated significantly, which means small percentage moves translate to large absolute changes.

How this rate is calculated
We prefer a direct rate from our primary data source when one is available. If a direct quote is unavailable, we compute a cross-rate through a major intermediary currency (usually USD or EUR). When a rate is derived rather than directly quoted, we label it on the page. Full methodology.
