Can any one tell me what is the process to get a RBI license for setting up a small Money Exchange to buy and sell foreign exchange.
Well, fluctuation in exchange rate might put both hotelier and the foreign tourists into problem, for which forward booking of currency,( though not feasible for short duration) is advisable when you plan for a longer stay.In all other cases, the hotelier charge the prevalent exchange rate for the particular day and the tourists is bound to accept and pay accordingly which may be income/loss for the either side.

Yes. This is how most tourists from England who visit USA get their money to spend inside USA because the UK Pound or the Euro are not widely accepted currencies inside USA. The banks would require your passport in order to confirm your identity and then exchange your English currencies into Dollars
I remember as a boy reading in an old LIFE magazine the account by one of the diplomats -- maybe the ambassador. the niceties were preserved. Th American embassy staff in Tokyo were interned under quite comfortable conditions, and after a time -- perhaps a few months -- they were exchanged for Japanese diplomats who have been in the US at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack. If I remember correctly, the exchange was carried out by a Swedish ship, which picked up the Japanese officials in the US, went to Japan (via Mozambique, controlled then by neutral Portugal) and picked up the Americans and brought them home. ------------------------------------------------------ The previous respondent is mostly correct with some exceptions - the American embassy staff were interned but not comfortably and were barely fed - many lost considerable weight by the time they were exchanged. A Swedish ship did take the Japanese staff to Mozambique but two Japanese ships carried the American staff to Mozambique. After the exchange, the Swedish ship returned to the US with the Americans and the Japanese ships returned to Japan with their staff. The ships had the words "DIPLOMATIC" painted in huge letters on the side to prevent their being attacked by submarines. The exchange included many more people than just diplomats. Tourists, businessmen, and missionaries were also trapped in Japan when the war broke out and were also interned and exchanged.
It brings in tourists who stay in hotels and go sightseeing and all this brings in foreign exchange to the country.

The #1 tourist destination for Americans is Mexico. Annually, about 20,000,000 Americans visit Mexico (accounting for almost all tourists traveling to Mexico). Canada comes in second with about 12,000,00 American tourists annually. Canada used to be the US' #1 tourist destination but the number of American tourists traveling to Canada has been declining for the last decade.
