JAKARTA - Bank Indonesia (BI) has re-opened rupiah currency exchange services to the public starting October 8, 2021. Head of the BI Communications Department Group Head, Muhamad Nur, said this decision will come into effect at all BI Representative Offices.
"This opening is an effort by Bank Indonesia to ensure the availability of rupiah currency suitable for circulation in the community while taking into account the latest government policy conditions regarding the Implementation of Restrictions on Community Activities (PPKM) for regions at levels 1-3", he said in a press statement quoted Thursday, October 7.
However, Nur said that rupiah currency service activities for people in West Sumatra, North Kalimantan, and South Kalimantan had not yet been opened, taking into account the PPKM level in the respective regions.
"People who will use the rupiah currency service at the BI Headquarters are required to use the PeduliLindungi application and scan barcodes as evidence that they have carried out the minimum first dose of vaccine", he said.
Meanwhile, at the BI Representative Office, Nur continued, they can show a certificate of COVID-19 vaccination at least the first dose.
