exchange euros for rubles

mariann97

Good evening to everyone
We are planning to visit Russia in a couple of days. We are flying to Talinn and then crossing via Ivangorod border. Has anyone recently exchanged for rubles at the airport there? If not is there a place we could make the exchange at the border?
Αny information would be helpful thank you!!

Airport exchange offices are expensive, and as I don't use them I can't tell if they sell RUB. Busses to Russia depart from coach terminal, it is between airport and old town and there's a little shopping centre _10mn walk from the coach station, along the boulevard, with a Tavid exchange office, Tavid sells RUB.

Thank you very much do you know if the Tavid has some machine for 24/7 service? We will be arriving at night. Thank you for responding!!

the one in the shopping center near coach station works with the center's hours, so no later than 21:00.
Rb. sale is always done manually, not at ATM by card. You would have to just change at the airport I guess. That said I know Tallinn only as a transit place to/from Russia like in your case and you would have more info at a dedicated Estonia travel forum.
