For example, when you are going to a restaurant on Curacao, you will find\u00a0that some places add a service charge to the bill. This surcharge can be seen\u00a0as a tip and is shared among the waiter and the rest of the kitchen staff.<br \/>\nNevertheless, when you are satisfied with the service, tipping is a good way to show your appreciation.<\/p>\n<p>When shopping at most big\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/staging.curacaotodo.com\/curacao-information\/supermarkets-on-curacao\/\">supermarkets<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0minimarkets, you will find\u00a0people at the cash register who want to help you pack your groceries\u00a0and bring them to your car. It is not mandatory to make use of this service\u00a0but it is common practice on the island to let them help you and, again, it does show your appreciation.<br \/>\nWhat you give is discretionary but it is advised to give a couple of guilders to the person helping you.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, when you are staying at a hotel and the bellboy brings your\u00a0luggage to the room, the rule of thumb is to give a couple of guilders.\u00a0The hotel will usually also add a service charge to your bill, which\u00a0will be around 10-15% of the total amount. N.B. This does not include the additional government tax of 9%.<\/p>\n<p>On Curacao at ATM\u2019s you will most likely be able to withdraw either Guilders or US dollars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Money on Curacao On Curacao the Antillean Guilder (ANG or NAF) is the official currency.
