Operating hours vary by branch

As Spot.uz notes, working hours may differ depending on the specific branch, so customers are advised to check the information directly with the banks. The banks themselves publish their own schedules: in particular, lists of branches and exchange points operating on the weekend have been posted by Asakabank, Business Development Bank, Ipak Yuli Bank, Ipoteka Bank, Microcreditbank, People's Bank, Trustbank, Turonbank, Asia Alliance Bank, Garant Bank, Hamkorbank, Infinbank, Orient Finance Bank, Poytaxt Bank and Universalbank.

Alternative ways to exchange currency

In addition to branches, currency exchange on the weekend will be available through ATMs operating 24/7 and through mobile applications of commercial banks. The publication of the list with weekend schedules comes amid recent complaints about problems withdrawing money from ATMs: earlier, the Central Bank called on banks and payment systems to objectively investigate such reports.
