Converting from Fiji Dollar (FJD) to Macau Pataca (MOP)

What is Fiji Dollar (FJD)

The Fiji Dollar (FJD) is the official currency of Fiji, an island nation located in the South Pacific Ocean. The currency symbol for the Fiji Dollar is often denoted as "FJ＄" to avoid confusion with other dollar-denominated currencies. Introduced in 1969, the FJD replaced the Fijian pound at a rate of 2 Fiji Dollars for every 1 Fijian pound.

Fiji uses both banknotes and coins, with banknotes available in denominations of 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 dollars. The coins are typically issued in 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50-cent and one-dollar denominations. The central bank, the Reserve Bank of Fiji, oversees the issuance and regulation of the currency.

The value of the Fiji Dollar is influenced by various factors, including tourism, agriculture, and remittances from Fijians living abroad. As a popular tourist destination, seasonal fluctuations can also significantly impact the exchange rates with foreign currencies.

What is Macau Pataca (MOP)

The Macau Pataca (MOP) is the official currency of Macau, a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of China located on the southern coast of China, near Hong Kong. The currency symbol for the Pataca is often written as "MOP＄" to distinguish it from other currencies. The Pataca was first introduced in 1894, replacing the Spanish dollar.

The Pataca is further subdivided into 100 avos and is available in both banknotes and coins. The banknotes come in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, and 1,000 Patacas, while coins are available in denominations of 1, 2, 5, and 10 Patacas, along with 1, 2, 5, and 10 avos. The issuance of the currency is managed by the Monetary Authority of Macau.

Similar to the Fiji Dollar, the value of the Macau Pataca is also impacted by various economic factors, including tourism, which plays a critical role in Macau's economy, particularly given its status as a global gambling hub. Exchange rates can fluctuate based on economic conditions in both Macau and China.
