How to send money from Canada to Taiwan

Pick a company

Start with the cheapest, which is Paysend at 22,947.34 TWD on CA$1,000.

Paysend was the cheapest on 30 of the 30 days it quoted CA$1,000 transfers to Taiwan.

More than half of Canadians sending money still pay at a store counter. The same company is often cheaper online.

Fund your transfer

You have 4 ways to pay, including bank transfer, debit card, credit card, and interac.

Interac e-Transfer is how most companies take your money, moving it into their Canadian account so they can carry it over the border.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need a photo ID, and often where the money came from.

Your first transfer will be slower than the ones after it because of those checks, so send it a few days before it's needed.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send $1,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what $1,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. There are no bank quotes for this period.

The dashed line is what you'd get at the mid-market rate with no fees, and the blue line is the cheapest option that day.

When the blue line goes above the dashed one, you're getting more TWD per CAD than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

No company, app or bank beat the mid-market rate over the past month, meaning you lose a bit of TWD on every transfer from Canada.

Right now, Paysend pays 22,947.34 TWD on 1,000 CAD, which is 109.56 TWD less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 23,163.33 TWD.

If you can wait and want to get the most out of your transfer, create a rate alert and we'll let you know when the rate improves.

Cheapest over time

Picking the cheapest money transfer company

Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to Taiwan.

We've tracked 180 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 6 amounts over the past month.

  1. PaysendAppeared in 90 comparisons

    Cheapest in 99% of them

  2. OFXAppeared in 149 comparisons

    Cheapest in 21% of them

  3. RemitlyAppeared in 110 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 180 comparisons across 6 amounts over the last 30 days.

Different companies can come out cheapest depending on the day and the amount you send.

To keep things fair, we only count the comparisons each company appeared in, and only analyze companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).

Today Paysend is the cheapest and gets you the most TWD, and it was also the cheapest in 99% of the 90 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

It's a good pick for both one-off and regular transfers to Taiwan.

OFX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 21% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Taiwan.

Ways to send money from Canada to Taiwan

There are 3 companies sending money to Taiwan, but how you send depends on your needs.

For transfers home

Money transfer apps

An app does the same job as the store for less, and you top it up with an Interac e-Transfer, the same way you'd send money to a friend.

Paysend charges CA$0 in fees and adds 0.48% markup, so your CA$1,000 delivers 22,947.34 TWD in 6-12 hours.

Over the past month, Paysend was the cheapest app on 100% of the days it appeared for CA$1,000 transfers.

You don't need a SIN to sign up either, a passport works.

For one-off transfers

Online transfers

For bigger or less frequent transfers, compare a couple of online services on the day, and pick the cheapest.

Of the 3 companies we compared, Paysend is the cheapest online service and currently gets you 22,947.34 TWD on a CA$1,000 transfer after a CA$0 fee and 0.48% markup.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 30 of the 30 days it quoted.

Funding by bank transfer (EFT) is cheapest but takes 1-2 days to clear, and Interac e-Transfer or debit card is faster but pricier.

For large transfers from Canada

Currency brokers

For property, tuition, moving from Canada, or an inheritance, a broker is the best and usually the cheapest option.

Brokers like OFX charge no fees but add 0.65% on CAD/TWD interbank rate.

The markup gets lower the more you send, with an account manager handling it end to end.

Our analysis shows OFX was the cheapest broker in 60% of all the transfers it quoted.

If you're sending large amounts, expect more questions about the transfers, so have statements and documents ready to avoid delays.

For businesses paying abroad

Global accounts

Global accounts handle the business side, paying suppliers, contractors and overseas invoices in TWD.

Companies like OFX, Airwallex, or WorldFirst are set up for the batch and recurring payments a personal app can't do.

Ways to fund CAD and receive TWD in Taiwan

With Paysend, paying by debit card and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending CA$1,000 gives your recipient 22,947.34 TWD.

Deposit CAD using bank transfer, debit card, credit card, and interac.

I suggest using Interac e-Transfer for simplicity

Follow the company's Interac instructions and check the business name before sending.

Do not send to an email address supplied outside the company's app or website.

The recipient can receive TWD through bank deposit.

For a bank deposit payout, you will need the recipient's bank details in Taiwan.

Consider this when sending CAD to Taiwan

Interac can fund an international transfer, but it does not send money abroad by itself. You should also know what happens when a transfer reaches the FINTRAC reporting threshold.

Compare CAD/TWD transfer options

For a CA$1,000 transfer to Taiwan, these are the cheapest, fastest and easiest options available now.

Best way to send money to Taiwan

Paysend is the cheapest and easiest option, funded by debit card with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 22,947.34 TWD, which is 0.18% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Taiwan

Paysend is fastest when you pay by debit card and choose bank deposit for the payout. The transfer delivers 22,947.34 TWD in 6-12 hours.

Interac only works inside Canada

An Interac e-Transfer cannot go directly to a recipient in Taiwan.

When a transfer company accepts Interac, you send CAD to its Canadian account and the company handles the international side over its own network.

C$10,000 reporting threshold

There is no C$10,000 legal cap on electronic transfers from Canada.

A reporting entity must report an international electronic funds transfer of C$10,000 or more to FINTRAC, including linked transfers that meet the 24-hour rule.

The bank or transfer company makes that report, you do not file it yourself.

But you may be asked for proof of where the money came from.

Sending your own cash or making a genuine cash gift does not create a Canadian gift tax simply because the money goes abroad.

Tax can become relevant when you transfer an appreciated asset rather than cash, or when attribution rules apply.

CDIC protection

Money held with a payment company is not covered by CDIC in the same way as an eligible bank deposit.

Payment companies covered by the Retail Payment Activities Act must safeguard end-user funds, but the Bank of Canada does not resolve individual fee or payment disputes.

If you’re unsure about the company, you can check the company in the FINTRAC MSB Registry.

If you live in Quebec, also confirm that it is allowed to provide money services there.
