There are many Exchange Houses (Casas de Cambio de Moneda) in Bolivia, primarily in it's largest cities: La Paz, Cochabamba and Santa Cruz. Most are well known and well established. Many of them also function as Western Union offices (although most DHL offices also function as Western Union offices).

Some also offer check-writing services. If you need to send a check written from a U.S. Bank account and you don't have a bank account in the U.S. you can pay them the amount you want a check written for, plus a fee for the service, and they will make the check out to whomever you choose. They have accounts in U.S. banks.


They also exchange torn bills - sometimes. If you have U.S. Dollars or any other foreign currency that are torn even slightly, they will not be accepted anywhere (which seems strange to many foreigners, especially since the local currency is usually quite torn, old, battered, with pieces missing, and even taped together and it is accepted as is.) So don't accept any dollars from anyone if they have even the most insignificant tear - even if it is only 1 millimeter in size!

You can also exchange your money at any local bank. However, these agencies usually have money from many other countries whereas at banks you are limited to bolivianos and dollars (and Euros only at some). There are many others aside from the ones listed here, which I've listed because I've used them personally.
