How Exchange Rates Work in Angola
Exchange rates in Angola's formal market are set by commercial banks based on the reference rate published by the National Bank of Angola (Instruction No. 16/2019) and on foreign currency supply and demand conditions. Each bank sets and publishes its own buy and sell rates, which may be updated throughout the day.
cambio.ao automatically collects and compares exchange rates from 18 Angolan banks, updating the information hourly to show you, in one place, the rates each bank is currently offering.
Buy Rate vs Sell Rate
Buy Rate
This is the rate at which the bank buys foreign currency from you. Use this rate when you want to sell dollars, euros, or rands to the bank in exchange for kwanzas.
Sell Rate
This is the rate at which the bank sells foreign currency to you. Use this rate when you want to buy dollars, euros, or rands from the bank, paying in kwanzas.

Kinguila Today — Informal Market Rate
The word kinguila comes from the Kimbundu kukingila ("to wait for") and refers to the person — traditionally women — who buys and sells foreign currency on the streets of Angola, outside the formal banking system. By extension, the "kinguila rate" or simply "kinguila today" refers to the exchange rate offered in this informal market, which can vary by area, time of day and individual negotiation with each trader.
cambio.ao presents the kinguila rate solely as an informational reference for comparison with commercial bank rates. All currency exchange operations must be carried out exclusively through institutions authorized by the National Bank of Angola, in accordance with the Exchange Law (Law No. 5/97).
