About Seychellois Rupee Exchange

The Seychellois Rupee (SCR) is the official currency of the Republic of Seychelles, the island nation in the Indian Ocean known as a popular destination for UK holidaymakers. We accept all denominations of Seychellois Rupee banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.

Current Seychellois Rupee Banknotes

The current banknote series, first issued in 2016, features vivid imagery of the Seychelles’ distinctive wildlife and natural landscapes. We accept all denominations in this series, including the 100 SCR note and the 500 SCR note, along with all smaller denominations such as the 25 SCR and 50 SCR notes. Unlike most high street exchanges, we buy back the full range of Seychellois Rupee banknotes rather than cherry-picking only the higher values.

Old Series & Damaged Notes

Unlike many other exchanges, we also buy older, withdrawn Seychellois Rupee banknotes that predate the current 2016 series. Damaged notes are welcome too, provided they remain at least 50% intact. We apply a slightly reduced rate for worn or withdrawn notes to account for the additional processing involved, but we will always make you a clear offer before any exchange is confirmed.

Seychellois Rupee Coins

We accept Seychellois Rupee coins across all circulating denominations, from the smaller centimes right up to the larger rupee coins. Coin exchange rates are slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling costs involved, but this is one area where we differ from many services that turn coins away altogether. If you have returned from the Seychelles with a mix of notes and coins, we can handle the lot.

Seychellois Rupee Exchange FAQ

Can I exchange Seychellois Rupees if I only have a small amount left over from my holiday?

Yes, we welcome leftover holiday currency in any quantity, so there is no need to worry if you have only a handful of notes and coins from your trip to the Seychelles. Simply send us what you have and we will assess the value and make you an offer. If you are unhappy with the rate, we will return your currency free of charge.

Do you accept Seychellois Rupee banknotes from before the 2016 series?

Yes, we do accept older withdrawn Seychellois Rupee banknotes that predate the current series first issued in 2016. These will be exchanged at a slightly reduced rate compared to current notes, which is standard practice for withdrawn currency. Most UK banks and bureaux de change will not handle these older notes, so we are one of the few places where you can still convert them.

What Seychellois Rupee coins do you accept?

We accept Seychellois Rupee coins across all denominations currently in circulation, including both the centime and rupee coins. Coins are exchanged at a slightly lower rate than banknotes due to handling costs, but unlike many services we do not refuse them outright. If you are unsure whether a particular coin is accepted, feel free to contact us before sending.

How do I send my Seychellois Rupees to you and when will I be paid?

You simply box up your Seychellois Rupees and post them to us yourself — many customers use a tracked or insured postal service for peace of mind when sending currency back from an island destination. Once we receive and verify your notes and coins, payment is made within 5 working days by bank transfer or PayPal. If you are not happy with the offer we make, we will return your rupees at no cost to you.

Are Seychellois Rupees accepted by UK banks?

No, most UK high street banks will not exchange Seychellois Rupees, as it is considered an exotic currency with limited demand outside the islands. That is why a specialist service like ours is one of the most practical options for converting leftover SCR into pounds. You might also find similar limitations with other Indian Ocean island currencies such as Maldivian Rufiyaa, which we also buy.
