**General information on dollar purchase in banks: regulations and graphics** All operations with dollars are not subject to time limits, provided they are supported by the required documentation and sworn statements. The official dollar rate through banks is set daily, based on a single official graph. As the "New Agents" agency works, the working hours of bank branches for such operations vary depending on the type of institution - state-owned or private.
**State banks: official graphic** State banks, such as Banco Nación (BNA) and Banco Provincia (Bapro), maintain a single official graphic. They allow clients to exchange the non-cash value only during business hours - from 10:00 to 15:00.
**Private banks: flexible hours** In private banks, access to dollar purchase is longer. For example, BBVA offers operations 24/7: from 5:00 to 23:00 on weekdays. Galicia opens branches from 6:00 to 23:00 on weekdays, Macro - from 7:00 to 20:00, and Santander - from 10:00 to 17:00.
**Important news** According to sources familiar with the matter, operations with non-cash value in cash and private days are possible. As of October 27, the first possibility for agents to convert savings into dollars after the election will be available.
