EBB Airport has forex exchange outlets and money transfer agents who offer financial services to all customers in need. These outlets are within the arrivals and departures terminals.
For arriving travelers, after clearing at customs you pick your luggage and continue to the next hall that has all these services including the telecommunication agents who sell local Sim cards with internet plus ATMs. When inside the Airport, you can exchange your money like US dollars, Euros and Pounds, send money to your loved ones or withdraw using your Visa card and MasterCard.

To give you some advice, if you want to get better forex rates avoid exchanging from the Airport. Their rates are always very low compared to when you move out of the Airport.
