Foreign cash allowance for travellers restricts banknote purchases per visit; exceptions permit higher cash draws for certain countries and pilgrimages. Travel purchasers of foreign currency in notes and coins are subject to a per-visit cash ceiling, with balances required to be taken in alternative instruments such as store value cards, travellers cheques or banker's drafts; specified country-specific exceptions permit higher or full cash drawal, and Haj/Umrah travellers may receive full entitlement in cash or up to the pilgrimage cash limit, released by authorized dealers and full fledged money changers.
