Guadeloupe / Banks
Banks are open for exchange Mon-Fri 8am-12 midday and 2pm-4pm. Some banks are open on Saturday mornings. Banks generally require customers to show their passport and air ticket when converting foreign dollars, particularly when converting back to your home currency.
Banks in Guadeloupe include Banque des Antilles Françaises, Banque Nationale de Paris, Banque Populaire and Crédit Agricole. ATMs are available at most bank branches and at the airport. There is a bank in all of the main towns on the island and most banks have ATMs. They work on the chip and pin system so cards issued in the US may not work.
