The most sought-after foreign currencies in Romania as the summer holiday season kicks up are the euro, the Turkish lira, and the Albanian lek, according to data from precious metal and forex dealer Tavex. There is also a smaller but stable demand for currencies linked to long-haul destinations, such as the Japanese yen, South Korean won, Indonesian rupiah, and Vietnamese dong. The strongest demand remains for the euro, as many of the most popular summer destinations for Romanians are either in the eurozone or widely use the euro for tourist payments, including Greece, Italy, Spain, Montenegro, and Bulgaria.
