Buy before you fly
Benefits of planning ahead
It's always a good idea to have some Euros handy for essentials like food, drink, tips and transport when you arrive.
Buying your Euros before you head off means you won’t need to worry about finding an ATM while you’re away. You’ll also be able to avoid any additional withdrawal charges.
It’s worth remembering that foreign exchange rates can go up and down. When you buy your Euros in advance, you can be sure of the rate you are going to get. Withdrawing cash abroad may not give you the same exchange rate.
Find out more about the benefits of travelling with foreign currency, see our guide: Why you still need travel money abroad
Get your currency when it’s convenient for you
You can use Click+Collect to arrange a time to pick up your Euros as part of your weekly shop, either from a Tesco Travel Money Bureau or customer service desks. You can also use our home delivery service, which is free for online orders of £500 or more.
Exchange rates can change throughout the day and may vary depending on whether you buy in-store, online, or over the phone.
Some common questions about the Euro
The Euro is used in a range of European countries. It was created by the European Union in 1999 and launched in 2002, when it replaced the local currencies of most EU member states. So, when you travel to Italy or Spain, you need Euros to spend while you’re there instead of Lira or Peseta.
The Euro is used by a wide range of countries, most of them member states of the European Union – although some non-member countries use it too. If you’re travelling to the following countries, you can expect to use Euros:
- AustriaAustria
- BelgiumBelgium
- BulgariaBulgaria
- CroatiaCroatia
- CyprusCyprus
- EstoniaEstonia
- FinlandFinland
- FranceFrance
- GermanyGermany
- GreeceGreece
- IrelandIreland
- ItalyItaly
- LatviaLatvia
- Lithuania
- LuxembourgLuxembourg
- MaltaMalta
- The NetherlandsThe Netherlands
- PortugalPortugal
- SlovakiaSlovakia
- SloveniaSlovenia
- SpainSpain
There are also some non-euro member states that have agreed to use the Euro. They are:
- AndorraAndorra
- MonacoMonaco
- San MarinoSan Marino
- Vatican CityVatican City
Notes come in 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 euros. 500-Euro notes are no longer being printed, but existing banknotes remain legal tender and can continue to be used.
There are eight denominations of Euro coins: 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cents, plus 1 and 2 Euros. Euro coins have a common side (the tail) and a national side (the head), which features country-specific designs. Regardless of the country of design, the coins can be used anywhere the Euro is accepted.
Euro coins and banknotes were designed by the European Central Bank to be attractive, secure and user-friendly. They all clearly have the amount of money they represent printed as part of the design.
The first series of banknotes was created to celebrate the Ages and styles of Europe and features bridges and buildings that are inspired by European architecture. The second series, called the Europa series, reworked the original designs to include more security features.
From 1 January 2023, Croatia replaced the local currency, the Croatian kuna, with the euro. This means that Croatia is the 20th country to join the eurozone, almost 10 years after initially joining the European Union.
Croatia has also joined the European Union’s borderless Schengen zone, allowing people to travel freely between member countries without going through border controls.
