Demand for foreign currency at exchange offices has been noticeably higher than usual in recent days, said Borislav Brujić of the Exchange Offices Association. He said citizens' requests are being met and claims that some offices restricted sales are untrue.

It does happen that a particular office temporarily has no currency, but people understand the situation.

The dinar's average rate yesterday was 117.53 per euro, with an upper rate of about 117.99 and a lower rate of 116.05.
