How 1 EUR in escudos moved over 90 days, from 16 May 2026 to 8 August 2026. The line is flat because the rate is fixed by the euro peg.
The problem with converting escudos outward
This direction has a difficulty the reverse does not: the escudo is a closed currency. Outside Cape Verde, few exchange bureaux accept it, and those that do offer rates considerably worse than the official one, precisely because they struggle to move it on.
The practical advice for visitors is simple: spend your escudos before you leave. Keeping notes to change at home almost always costs you, and the airport is usually the last reasonable opportunity.
For residents converting regularly the calculation is different, and it is worth comparing local banks — the rate they offer against the official 110.265 varies, and on recurring amounts the difference compounds.
