What is the currency and exchange rate in Kyrgyzstan?

The local currency is the som. One euro corresponds to roughly 76–78 soms. You can exchange money once in the country, either at banks or in the many exchange offices.
Note that the som is rarely exchanged outside of Kyrgyzstan: if you have soms left at the end of your trip, make sure to convert them back into euros before taking your flight home.
