Converting from Seychelles Rupee (SCR) to Sri Lanka Rupee (LKR)

What is Seychelles Rupee (SCR)

The Seychelles Rupee (SCR) is the official currency of Seychelles, an archipelago located in the Indian Ocean. Introduced in 1914, the Seychelles Rupee replaced the Indian Rupee that was previously used in the region. The currency is denoted by the symbol "₨" and typically follows the ISO currency code SCR.

The SCR is subdivided into 100 cents and is issued in both coins and banknotes. Coins come in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 cents, along with 1, 5, and 10 rupees. The banknotes are available in 10, 25, 50, 100, 500, and 1,000 rupee denominations. The Currency Department of the Central Bank of Seychelles safeguards the issuing of SCR and aims to maintain the currency's stability.

The Seychelles economy heavily relies on tourism, fisheries, and agriculture. Due to its unique natural beauty and biodiversity, the country attracts many travelers each year, which in turn impacts the value and exchange rate of the Seychelles Rupee.
