Cambio ID questions
I have seen people posting about using their passport and drivers license for ID at Cambios when exchanging money. Do you have to show ID to change money?
I just show them a copy of my US Passport and everything is irie.......
the Passport usually stays in the room safe the entire reach as we can't afford to loose that......
there have been times I have changed money without a passport but they gotten to know me after going there so often......lol

I went to the Cambio on Saturday Passport in pocket. Was never even asked for it.
I went to Banmark about 15 minutes ago and was asked for ID...
It is an official Jamaican government policy to show an ID and was implemented in conjunction with the USA's anti-money laundering laws.

Either DL or Passport will work as ID to cash travelers checks. In 13 years I have never used a cambio without being asked for ID.
when i went to the cambio next to the bank in town and they never asked for ID
I changed money at the Cambio in town last month without them asking for ID.
I would say take one or the other with you. Why take chances
Thanks everyone.
Good to know. Glad I wasn't asked for ID because I don't believe I had an ID one me when we exchanged money.
