About:Chinese Currency & Money Exchange
Is it true that Bank of China is no longer converting USD into RMB for tourists?
It's difficult to believe, but I have been refused by two different branches of Bank of China when trying to convert USD into RMB, because 'my visa is too short'. I have a 10-year tourist visa on a U.S. passport, with the standard 60-day entry and was trying to exchange a rather small amount of dollars (US$200).
Is this true, or is it just a regional fluke (Wuhan, Hubei).
