Money Exchange in Incheon — Best Rates & Locations

Skip the airport exchange if you can — downtown Incheon, especially Myeongdong, typically offers rates 1–2% better than airport counters or banks. Most exchange shops are open 09:00–21:00 and accept major currencies including USD, EUR, JPY, and CNY. Bring your passport, as it's sometimes required. Before handing over your cash, check the rate boards at 2–3 shops side by side — the difference can add up. Tip: the closer you are to the main tourist strip in Myeongdong, the more competitive the rates tend to be.
