Curacao - Money

Aug 10, 2025

The Caribbean guilder was introduced in the monetary union of Curaçao and Sint Maarten on March 31, 2025. This new currency replaces the Netherlands-Antillean guilder that was in circulation on the former islands of the Netherlands Antilles.

The new Caribbean guilder (XCG) replaces the Netherlands-Antillean guilder (ANG) as the official currency of Curaçao and Sint Maarten. The two currencies are expected to co-circulate until June 31, 2025 and the ANG can be exchanged for XCG at commercial banks for the next year (until March 31, 2026).

The Caribbean guilder is legally pegged to the U.S. dollar at a fixed exchange rate of US$1 = 1.79 Caribbean guilder. The Netherlands Antillean guilder and the Caribbean guilder are of equal value. One guilder is divided into 100 cents.

See the Central Bank of Curacao and Sint Maarten Caribbean guilder site for additional information.

The US dollar is widely accepted.
