Tips for exchanging money in Kuwait City

1Shops away from the airport and main tourist streets usually offer better KWD rates.
2Always compare the buy/sell spread — a low headline rate can hide a wide spread.
3Ask if there's a commission on top of the rate; the best shops quote all-in.
4Count your cash before leaving the counter and keep the receipt.
