Hint: Use well known cheques such as American Express, Thomas Cook, VISA, Bank of America or Eurocheck. See BANKS. Warning. Be sure to take your passport when cashing traveler’s cheques. While credit cards are increasingly accepted by shops, restaurants and hotels, traveler's cheques often are not accepted. You may be required to cash checks at an exchange office to get rubles. Your passport is always needed for both traveler's cheques and credit cards. See CURRENCY EXCHANGE FOR INDIVIDUALS. |
