DCC 係可以拒絕
除非你去個間鋪專呃 local,大部分人只會幫你揀 local currency

DCC is an optional service offered by foreign merchants at the POS that lets you see the cost of your purchase in your home currency, i.e., U.S. dollars. Unfortunately, DCC comes with a high currency conversion rate and additional fees that can make the transaction very expensive. One European study found exchange rate markups of from 2.6% to 12%. As DCC is optional, you have the right to decline it when offered.
If you agree to DCC when you make the purchase or withdrawal, that exchange will also be subject to any foreign transaction fee levied by your credit card, debit card, or ATM network. This could result in fees of up to 7% or more.
