angola is still closely connected to portugal, so euros will almost certainly be a better currency than dollars.

The official currency is the Kwanza and I do not like to cotradict the previous reply but it would seem that US dollars are acceptable. See:-

It used to be that Dollars were King. Still are for me anyway, but Euros now run along side in many many places. The question is - what is your home currency? It makes no sense for Eurozone and Americans to buy each others currency and then go to a 3rd currency.

Either or both is the best answer here.

All the best,

DAO

Hi all,
like the guys said euro is now accepeted in many places but i advice you to have dollars as they are more popular you can even change them in the street and there are many places who will accept only dollars beside kewanza.
