Purchase of foreign currency for ISK
You can exchange ISK for foreign currency by using the Bank's online bank transfer operation. You just select an Icelandic withdrawal account and deposit it into a foreign currency account (with an associated exchange rate offer). You can buy all major currencies at Íslandsbanki's branches. You can also access foreign currency (USD, EUR, GBP, DKK) at Íslandsbanki's foreign exchange ATMs, located in our branches in Norðurturn, Laugardalur, Hafnarfjörður and Akureyri. The foreign exchange ATM in Norðurturn is located outside the branch, so foreign currency can be obtained outside normal Smáralind opening hours. You can also withdraw NOK, SEK and PLN.
