Martinique / Banks

Banks are open for exchange Mon-Fri, 7.30am-12 midday and 2.30pm-4pm. They are closed on public holidays and weekends. Banks generally require customers to show their passport and air ticket when converting foreign dollars, particularly when converting Euros back to your home currency. 

Banks in Martinique include Banque des Antilles Françaises, Banque Nationale de Paris, Banque Populaire, Crédit Mutuel and Crédit Agricole. ATMs are available at most bank branches and at the airport. They work on the chip and pin system so cards issued in the US may not work.
