Contact numbers are published hospital contacts, not confirmed ambulance hotlines. Confirm services, language support, payment and insurance directly. Arrange transport with your accommodation when needed.

Cash, ATMs & currency exchange

Prepare Indonesian rupiah before sailing to the islands. If your trip depends on exchanging foreign cash, arrange it at an authorised exchange in your earlier stop, such as Jakarta or Bali, or confirm a Sorong counter before arrival.

Budget for unpaid accommodation, boat transfers, activities, permits, meals and a contingency reserve; subtract deposits already paid. Ask each operator what must be paid in cash. Carry enough for those costs, rather than an arbitrary large amount.

Withdraw in Sorong where possible; Waisai is a backup, not a guarantee. Check your card compatibility, withdrawal limits and fees. Do not rely on finding an ATM on your island. Carry small denominations and keep cash securely in separate places.

Sorong counters below appear in online listings. Confirm opening, accepted currencies, identification, rate, fees and cash availability before visiting. Ask for a receipt. Current licensing and same-day service have not been independently confirmed.
