VUV - Vanuatu Vatu currency

Vanuatu flag Vanuatu

The Vanuatu Vatu (VUV) is the official currency of Vanuatu, an island nation in the Pacific Ocean. Introduced in 1981 following Vanuatu?s independence from France and the United Kingdom, the vatu replaced the New Hebrides franc. Unlike many currencies, the vatu has no subdivisions such as cents, making it unique in its structure. The Reserve Bank of Vanuatu is responsible for its issuance and regulation. Due to Vanuatu?s tourism and agricultural economy, the vatu plays a crucial role in facilitating trade, especially in the export of copra, cocoa, and kava. While the vatu is primarily used within Vanuatu, foreign currencies like the Australian dollar are sometimes accepted in tourist areas.
