Editing Saint Martin (island) (section)

==Currency==
The official currency of Saint Martin is the [[euro]], while Sint Maarten uses the [[Netherlands Antillean guilder]], pegged at 1.79 per US dollar. As a consequence of the dissolution of the [[Netherlands Antilles]], the Netherlands Antillean guilder will cease to be legal tender and be replaced by the [[Caribbean guilder]], which was scheduled for circulation in the first half of 2021,<ref name="stmaarten">{{cite news |date=15 November 2020 |title=Central Bank announces introduction of Caribbean Guilder in 2021 |work=StMaartenNews.com |url=https://stmaartennews.com/news/central-bank-announces-introduction-of-caribbean-guilder-in-2021/ |access-date=8 December 2020 |archive-date=9 December 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211209123427/https://stmaartennews.com/news/central-bank-announces-introduction-of-caribbean-guilder-in-2021/ |url-status=live }}</ref> but now scheduled for 2024.<ref>{{Cite web |date=January 2023 |title=CBCS moves ahead with the Introduction of the Caribbean Guilder |url=https://cdn.centralbank.cw/media/press_releases_2022/20220905_pb2022_033_cbcs_continues_project_cmg_en.pdf |website=Centrale Bank Curaçao and Sint Maarten |access-date=18 January 2023 |archive-date=3 June 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230603012840/https://cdn.centralbank.cw/media/press_releases_2022/20220905_pb2022_033_cbcs_continues_project_cmg_en.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref> Almost every store on the island also accepts the [[United States dollar]], although sometimes a more expensive exchange rate is used.
