Currency booklet (Polish: Książeczka walutowa) was a document for the citizens of Polish People's Republic during 1970-1980s that kept records of the purchases of the currency of other Eastern Bloc states to use it abroad. Unused foreign currency could be returned to the currency booklet.[1] There was a limit of 30,000 zlotys for the amount of purchase per two years.[2] The currency could be purchased as it is, as well as in the form of traveler's checks.[3]
