Sending Money to Pakistan

Pakistan receives around $27 billion in remittances annually, making it one of the largest recipients in South Asia. The UK, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and North America are the top sending regions. Pakistan has a large diaspora across multiple continents, creating strong demand and good provider competition across all major sending currencies.

The Pakistani rupee (PKR) is managed by the State Bank of Pakistan. Rate margins vary between providers and the PKR exchange rate can move significantly — comparing the total amount received is the only reliable way to find the best deal regardless of your sending currency.

FAQ: Sending Money to Pakistan

What is the best rate to send money to Pakistan?
The best rate changes throughout the day as providers adjust their exchange rates. Always compare the total amount your recipient receives — not just the fee — as some "zero fee" providers compensate with a worse exchange rate. Jara compares 6 providers live so you can find the best deal in seconds.
How long does a transfer to Pakistan take?
Most transfers to Pakistan arrive within 1–3 business days, though many providers offer same-day or instant options. Delivery time depends on the provider, your payment method, and the receiving method. Mobile money is typically fastest; bank transfers may take longer. Always check the provider's estimated delivery time before sending.
What are the transfer limits for sending money to Pakistan?
Limits vary by provider and your account verification level. Wise typically supports large transfers for verified accounts. Remitly and Western Union often cap individual transfers around the equivalent of 50,000 in your sending currency, while WorldRemit generally limits to around 10,000 per transaction. Always verify current limits on the provider's website before initiating a transfer.
What details do I need to send money to Pakistan?
For most bank deposits you'll need the recipient's full name, bank account number, and the bank's routing or branch code. Some providers also accept mobile money IDs or wallet numbers. You'll need to complete identity verification with your chosen provider before your first transfer.
Can I send money to Pakistan from multiple countries?
Yes — Jara compares rates from 5 countries including the UK, US, Europe, Canada, and Australia. Use the tabs above to switch between sending countries and see live rates for each corridor.
Why do exchange rates differ between providers?
Each provider sources foreign exchange differently and applies their own markup above the mid-market rate. Some advertise "zero fees" but compensate with a wider margin on the rate. The only reliable comparison is the total PKR your recipient actually receives — which is exactly what Jara shows.
What is the best way to send money to Pakistan?
Wise, Remitly, and Western Union are among the most frequently compared providers for sending money to Pakistan. Bank transfers to major Pakistani banks are the most common receiving method, though mobile wallets like EasyPaisa and JazzCash are increasingly supported. Use Jara to compare live rates across all sending currencies.
