What is Aruba Florin (AWG)

The Aruba Florin, abbreviated as AWG, is the official currency of Aruba, a beautiful Caribbean island.

The Aruba Florin was introduced in 1986, replacing the Netherlands Antillean Guilder at a fixed rate. The currency is pegged to the U.S. dollar, which influences its stability and value, ensuring that it maintains a relatively consistent exchange rate against the dollar. In the tourism-heavy economy of Aruba, you will commonly encounter AWG in transactions, as local businesses cater to both visitors and residents.
