The best currency strategy is to bring a mix. Bring clean, crisp USD or Euros to exchange at the regulated airport bank counters upon arrival. For the rest of your trip, rely on the widely available ATMs to withdraw local Sri Lankan Rupees for everyday purchases and transport.

Do not exchange money on the black market or in jewelry shops. The airport rates are heavily regulated and virtually identical to city bank rates.
