The vatu (abbreviation: VT;[1] ISO code: VUV) is the currency of Vanuatu. Vanuatu is, by population, the fourth smallest country in the world, after Barbados, Tonga, and the Seychelles to have its own currency and monetary policy.
The vatu has no subdivisions, one of three currencies where this is the case, alongside the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) and Japanese yen.
