    Foreign exchange controls are various forms of controls imposed by a government on the purchase/sale of foreign currencies by residents or on the purchase/sale of local currency by nonresidents.

    Common foreign exchange controls include:

      Banning the use of foreign currency within the country
      Banning locals from possessing foreign currency
      Restricting currency exchange to government-approved exchangers
      Fixed exchange rates
      Restrictions on the amount of currency that may be imported or exported

    Countries with foreign exchange controls are also known as "Article 14 countries," after the provision in the International Monetary Fund agreement allowing exchange controls for transitional economies.
