How to send money to Australia?

anicaanica KsaPosts: 32Member
Guys,

I want to know how can I transfer money to australia? Lets say nasa Pinas po ako or any country, ano po ang trusted money remittance to send money in Australia? Like ko pong pagpadala ng pera sa brother ko na nag sstudy sa Melbourne for support to his weekly house bills and allowance.

Hope you will help me. Thanks

    Mas mahal sa bangko, mababa pa ang exchange rate.

    Yung iba naman hindi pwede padala overseas.

    You can also try online remittance services. Check worldremit and instarem. They have a remittance charge but depending on how much you're going to send. I have tried these services but maybe there are other cheaper ways :D

    Hi @romeojb haven't tried sending money from PH to AU but since it's an online remittance service, I think it's also available. The charge depends on how much money you will send.

    Hi. Would like to follow up po dito sa question. Does anyone of you know how to transfer money from PHILIPPINES to AUSTRALIA aside from western union, or bank transfer. I checked (Wise, World Remit, Remitly) but they can only send from Australia to Philippines not vice versa. Hope anyone can share on how we can send money to Australia in an inexpensive way. Thank you.

    if you want the most inexpensive way,
    I -1. Magpareserve ka dito Moonlight Money Changer. Ito daw ang pinakamagandang rates. Pero magtanong rin kayo sa ibang forex baka maganda ang rates para sure.
    https://www.moneymax.ph/personal-finance/articles/best-money-changer-philippines
    Igoogle niyo nalang ang contact number if nasa metro manila kayo. Or magpareserve bago pumunta sa airport. Since malaking pera yan, matagal yan nila mabubuo kasi kokonti lang ang australian dollar.
    2. Then fill-out https://www.austrac.gov.au/sites/default/files/2022-06/202206_AUSTRAC CBM Forms Carrying_English-1.pdf
    Pre-requisite: passport, visa, government id's (2)
    Pros: No extra charges. Konti lang an requirements

    II -
    Kung gusto niyo sa bank to bank transfer
    Ito ang magiging charges and price difference between foreign exchange.
    a) Our charges = 35 audollars
    b) Foreign Currency difference (Bulk Selling Rate determined by the bank - Current Selling Rate)
    c) Foreign Currency Difference of Bank vs Foreign Exchange
    d) Cable Charges = 10 usdollar
    e) Documentary Stamps = (Amount in peso / 200 ) * 0.60
    *Pre-requisites: Tin number, bank account, passport, travel ticket, visa, 2 government id's (sss, driver's, prc), bank account sa au, address ng account, account number sa au, swift code sa au, phone number ng bank sa au
    * Note: Bank should have third currency feature na meron kayong account na matagal narin. Hindi lahat ng BPI, BDO, PNB and other banks meron ganito. Kaya pag lodge niyo ng visa, consider opening an account sa mga bank na may third currency
    Pros:
    1. Protection of money baka mawala sa airport

    Has anyone tried using the P2P of Binance to transfer money to/from PH/AU? The Idea is to buy USDT via P2P using local AU bank. Then sell USDT in PHP. Let me know if someone has tried that or if that works.

    Pagmeron ka naman documentation, wala maging problem. Bring the documentation like receipt (from forex, bank), and fill-out the form na ideclare mo na more than 10k audollars. Handcarry mo yun talaga ang best way para hinid ka lugi ng charges ng bank

    Kung ayaw mo magdala ng pera, better wire transfer, yun lang maraming charges. Kindly refer sa previous post.
