About Belarusian Ruble Exchange

The Belarusian Ruble (BYN) is the official currency of Belarus, redenominated in 2016 following years of high inflation that had pushed earlier notes into the millions. We accept all denominations of Belarusian Ruble banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.

Current Belarusian Ruble Banknotes

The current series of Belarusian Ruble banknotes was introduced in 2016 and features architectural landmarks from across Belarus’s six regions. We accept all denominations in this series, including the 200 ruble note and the 500 ruble note, as well as the smaller denominations. Notes in this series carry modern security features including watermarks, security threads, and raised print.

Old Series & Damaged Notes

Unlike most high street exchanges, we also buy older pre-2016 Belarusian Ruble notes, which were withdrawn following the 2016 redenomination. We accept notes that are at least 50% intact, though the rate offered will be slightly lower than for current-series notes. If you have leftover notes from a trip to Belarus some years ago, there is a good chance we can still exchange them. We also handle other post-Soviet currencies you may have mixed in with your Belarusian currency, such as Ukrainian Hryvnia or Uzbekistani Som.

Belarusian Ruble Coins

We accept the full range of Belarusian Ruble coins first issued in 2009, including kopek subdivisions such as the 50 kopek and 2 ruble coin, as well as all other denominations in between. As with most foreign coins, the exchange rate is slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling involved, but we are happy to take them rather than leave you with loose change that cannot be spent.

Belarusian Ruble Exchange FAQ

Does Belarus still use the Belarusian Ruble?

Yes, the Belarusian Ruble (BYN) remains the official currency of Belarus today. The current series was introduced in 2016 following a redenomination that replaced the old Belarusian Ruble at a rate of 10,000 to 1, effectively removing four zeros from all denominations.

I have old Belarusian Ruble notes from before the 2016 redenomination — can I still exchange them?

Yes, we do accept pre-2016 Belarusian Ruble banknotes, which were withdrawn from circulation following the redenomination. The rate will be slightly lower than for current-series notes, and we require them to be at least 50% intact. Most UK banks and post offices will not exchange withdrawn Belarusian currency, so sending them to us is often the most straightforward option.

Do you accept Belarusian kopek coins?

Yes! We accept the full range of Belarusian coins first issued in 2009, including kopek denominations. The exchange rate for coins is slightly lower than for banknotes due to the extra handling involved, but there is no need to leave them behind in a drawer.

How do I send my Belarusian Rubles to you and when will I be paid?

Simply box up your Belarusian Rubles and post them to us yourself — please make sure they are packed securely for the journey from Belarus or wherever you are based in the UK. Once we receive and verify your currency, we will pay you within 5 working days by bank transfer or PayPal. If you are not happy with the rate we offer, we will return your currency to you free of charge.

Can I exchange Belarusian Ruble banknotes that are torn or worn?

Yes, we accept damaged Belarusian Ruble banknotes provided they are at least 50% intact. Unlike many high street exchanges, we do not turn away notes simply because they are creased, slightly torn, or showing signs of wear — though a significantly damaged note may be offered at a reduced rate.
