Currency Britain’s currency is the pound sterling (£), which is divided into 100 pence (p). Scotland has its own pound sterling notes. These represent the same value as an English note and can be used elsewhere in Britain. The Scottish £1 note is not accepted outside Scotland. There are lots of bureaux de change in Britain – often located inside: • banks • travel agents • Post Offices • airports • major train stations. It's worth shopping around to get the best deal and remember to ask how much commission is charged. Britain’s currency is the pound sterling (£), which is divided into 100 pence (p).

The following guidelines still apply: If you're planning an adventure to the UK, depending on your nationality and your reason for visiting, you may need to organise a visa. If you're an American, Canadian or Australian tourist, you'll be able to travel visa-free throughout the UK, providing you have a valid passport and your reason for visiting meets the immigration rules (link is external). Citizens from some South American and Caribbean countries as well as Japan are also able to travel visa-free around the UK. European Union citizens, non-EU member states of the EEA (Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland), Switzerland, and members of the Overseas Countries and Territories (OCT) do not need a visa to enter the UK. If you have any further visa questions visit the official UK government website. Anyone that has any questions, please feel free the comment below and I will answer them for you. You can dial 999 to reach either the police, fire and ambulance departments. Please like,subscribe or share my video. Thank You Rebecca Jordan Rebecca's Travels
