Airbnb may display prices in US Dollars on their site, depending on your account or display-currency settings.
But if you choose to pay in a currency that’s different from the currency the host set for the listing, Airbnb says it charges an additional fee on top of the booking.
This fee doesn’t appear as a separate line item. Airbnb folds it into its guest service fee, which normally runs 14.1% to 16.5% of the booking subtotal and can reach the full 16.5% on a cross-currency booking.
