The attendant asks the cardholder if he prefers to pay in his home currency or the local currency. 4. If the cardholder prefers his home currency, the POS device converts the sale price, based on the current exchange rate.

The issuing credit card company may impose additional foreign transactions fees. Every card issuer has different regulations regarding additional foreign transactions fees.
