US Embassy warns traveling Americans to have enough cash on them when visiting Liberia
The United States government has alerted its citizens traveling to Liberia to come with hard cash due to the country’s worsening economic situation that has forced banks to ration daily cash-withdrawals.
In a statement, Uncle Sam, through its Monrovia Embassy warned Americans and others foreign nations intending to visit Liberia that the county is facing an acute shortage of local and foreign currencies; as such, they “they should travel with cash that will sustain them for their time in the country.”
“Liberia’s banking sector has experienced a growing shortage of cash – both U.S. and Liberian dollars – over the last several months. As a consequence, it is difficult to obtain adequate cash supplies from ATMs and banks. There are no ATM facilities for public use at the U.S. Embassy,” it said.
