Hi,
I am trying to pay my Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) for my upcoming course in the UK. However, the amount that I’m supposed to pay is automatically converted to INR from GBP on the immigration website. There’s no option of choosing currency on the website. From what I understand, this comes under Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) and the Niyo global debit card doesn’t allow such transactions by default.
While I understand that this is done for the customer’s best interest, I have no option here other than to pay using the DCC rate. Therefore, I would like to know if I could activate DCC payments on my card for this one transaction.

Hey same thing happened with me today…So do you know how to enable DCC?
Hey @Simar_Chawla
Welcome to the Niyo Community!
The decline you’re experiencing is due to a DCC (Dynamic Currency Conversion) error. This happens when you try to use INR (your home currency) while abroad. To resolve this, please make transactions in the local foreign currency instead of INR.
We’ve disabled the DCC feature to avoid forex conversion markups and ensure a seamless experience for you. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out—we’re here to help!
