Algerian Dinar is the official currency of Algeria. It has several synonyms such as the DZD, Algerian Franc, Algerian Peseta, and Algerian Pound. However, these synonyms are not commonly used in the country itself, and the Dinar remains the most prominent term. The currency has undergone numerous changes over the years, with different versions being introduced and withdrawn from circulation. It is suggested that travelers to Algeria should exchange their foreign currency for Algerian Dinars on arrival in the country to avoid any potential issues when traveling around. The Algerian Dinar is primarily used for everyday purchases, with larger transactions often being conducted using alternative payment methods.
