Punta Cana Currency & Converter Dominican Peso (DOP)

The local currency in the Dominican Republic is the Dominican Peso (DOP). Any currency can be changed into pesos, but in some situations it may be difficult to exchange DOP back into original currency. We recommend exchanging only small amounts of money at a time. And don’t forget your driver’s license or passport! Please note that local ATM machines disburse only pesos, contact your bank for related service fees.

If you are going to Santo Domingo, you will find that souvenirs, clothing, artwork etc. is much cheaper than at the resort.

In a lot of places paying in pesos (DOP) will be cheaper – Source.
