Next door to ABA bank at central market, (street 136 and 53) is a money changer with decent rates. The one on Riverside, near Harry's bar (street 136 ) with the bog hairy Chow dog is ok too.

Make sure you check EVERY NOTE they give you not just for fakes but tears, stains or excess wear. $100's have good security features but $50's don't and they have to be PERFECT. Don't take any worn or torn or marked $50's in any way or you will get stuck with them.

Stick to $20 or smaller and undamaged and you won't get into too much trouble.

That doesnt sound so reliable. Thing is i have to exchange a really high amount to deposit into my USD Account in Phnom Penh. The bigger Banks dont accept CHF inside Cambodia. Where is it recommended to exchange secure CHF into USD? Thailand? Singapore?
