Turkish Lira Exchange Rate (TRY) – Currency Exchange in Warsaw
The Turkish lira (TRY) is the official currency of Türkiye, issued by the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye (TCMB). At Kantor Argentarii in Warsaw you can buy lira before your trip and sell any banknotes you bring back – quickly and at the current rate.
We are located at Grzybowska 61, in the Platinum Towers gallery – on the border of Wola and the city centre, a short walk from Rondo Daszyńskiego. Turkish lira is a permanent part of our offer. For a larger amount or specific denominations, call a day ahead and we will have the cash ready at an agreed time.

Current Turkish lira rate (TRY/PLN)
You will find our current buy and sell rates for the Turkish lira on the agkantor.pl homepage. They are updated continuously during opening hours and are more favourable than the board, so ask the cashier for them in store. The rate is the same regardless of the amount. The National Bank of Poland publishes a TRY rate every business day in table A, but that is a reference mid-rate only – a kantor always quotes two prices: buy and sell.

How much is 1 Turkish lira in złoty?
The lira has a low unit value today – one lira is worth a few groszy, so it is easier to think in hundreds and thousands. Instead of doing the maths yourself, enter the amount in the calculator above: it converts TRY to złoty at our live buy and sell rate rather than at the NBP mid-rate, so you see straight away what you will actually receive for 100, 1,000 or 5,000 lira.
Where to buy and sell Turkish lira in Warsaw
Türkiye is one of the most popular holiday destinations from Poland, yet not every exchange office stocks the lira – many handle only the major pairs. At Argentarii you can buy lira before your flight and sell the banknotes left over after a trip to Antalya, Istanbul or Bodrum. We also handle exchange of more than twenty other currencies, including exotic ones such as the Albanian lek or the UAE dirham. For larger amounts it is worth calling ahead. We will confirm which denominations are available and prepare the cash for an agreed time.
What drives the TRY/PLN rate
The lira floats freely. Its quotations are driven mainly by inflation in Türkiye and the interest-rate policy of the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye, and then by tourism revenue and foreign capital flows. The lira-to-złoty rate is usually calculated through the dollar and euro pairs, so the euro rate and the dollar rate against the złoty also affect the price of TRY in Poland. We do not forecast rates and we do not advise on timing. We simply publish the rate that applies right now.
Which Turkish banknotes we accept
Six banknote denominations are in circulation: 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 lira – the ninth emission group (E-9). We do not buy kuruş coins, so it is best to spend small change before you leave. Watch out for older notes: the eighth emission group marked “Yeni Türk Lirası” (YTL) was withdrawn on 1 January 2010 and the redemption period at the Turkish central bank ended on 31 December 2019 – neither a kantor nor a bank accepts them any more. Lira from before the 2005 redenomination, when six zeros were dropped (1,000,000 old lira = 1 new lira), are worthless too. We do not accept damaged banknotes.
How the exchange works
Check the current rate and come to Grzybowska 61. The exchange takes a few minutes: you state the amount, we confirm the rate and pay out cash on the spot. ID is required only for transactions of EUR 15,000 equivalent or more, in line with AML regulations. The kantor is entered in the NBP register of currency-exchange offices.
Reserve a rate for one hour
You can reserve the online table rate for 60 minutes free of charge – just fill in the contact form or call us. The reservation does not oblige you to exchange. We simply hold the agreed rate for an hour.

Frequently asked questions about exchanging Turkish lira
What is today’s Turkish lira rate at the kantor?
We publish the current buy and sell rate for the Turkish lira on the agkantor.pl homepage. It is updated continuously during opening hours. In store at Grzybowska 61, ask the cashier for this rate: it is more favourable than the board. The rate is the same regardless of the amount.
How much is 1 Turkish lira and 100 lira in złoty?
One Turkish lira is currently worth a few groszy, so amounts are easier to handle in hundreds and thousands. For an exact figure for 1, 100 or 1,000 lira use the calculator on the agkantor.pl homepage. It applies our live kantor rate, not the NBP mid-rate.
Where can I buy Turkish lira in Warsaw?
You can buy Turkish lira at Kantor Argentarii, Grzybowska 61, in the Platinum Towers gallery in Wola, a few minutes’ walk from Rondo Daszyńskiego. The currency is a permanent part of our offer. For a larger amount or specific denominations, confirm availability by phone before you come. Phone: +48 791 901 979.
Is it better to exchange money in Poland or in Türkiye?
It is worth having lira on arrival – for the transfer, water or a first meal, as rates in the arrivals hall are usually noticeably worse. The rest can be exchanged locally. Exchanging złoty in Türkiye is difficult: few exchange offices buy PLN, and usually at a less favourable rate.
Do you buy back Turkish lira after a trip?
Yes, we buy all circulating banknote denominations: 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 lira. We do not accept kuruş coins, so it is best to spend the change before returning. We do not buy withdrawn YTL notes or pre-2005 lira. They are no longer valid.
Can I pay in euros or dollars in Türkiye?
The official currency is the lira and prices are quoted in it. Hotels and tourist areas sometimes accept euros, but usually at an inflated conversion, and change is given in lira anyway. Paying in lira avoids a double conversion – so it is worth preparing cash before you travel.
