How to send money from Switzerland to Egypt

Pick a company

Start with the cheapest, which is Regency FX at 373,572.29 EGP for CHF 6,000 transfer.

Sending the same money as an international transfer from your Swiss bank costs 1 to 3% in the rate before any fee.

Fund your transfer

You have 3 ways to pay, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

TWINT won't do this, it's for paying people and shops inside Switzerland.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need a photo ID and your Swiss address.

Your may pause a first large transfer, it just means you need to submit more details to confirm it's really you.

Ways to send money from Switzerland to Egypt

5 companies send money from Switzerland to Egypt, across broker, app, online, multi-currency account, and global account, and more.

For one-off transfers

Online transfers

Online services like Wise are usually cheaper than Swiss banks for one-off and medium-sized transfers.

With Wise, 6,000 CHF gets your recipient 371,183.67 EGP.

The fee is 53.04 CHF, with a 0.02% on top of CHF/EGP rate.

For spending and receiving

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account is useful if you earn in Swiss francs but spend money in EGP (be it payments or travelling).

Wise converts CHF 6,000 with a 0.02% exchange-rate markup and lets you hold CHF and EGP in one account.

For regular transfers

Money transfer apps

For the monthly transfer to family, money transfers apps are the easiest to start with.

Wise charges fr.53.04 on a fr.6,000 transfer, and the money lands within a week.

You can also save recipients and create automated scheduled transfers to Egypt.

You can’t make deposits with TWINT, but instead you can use Apple Pay, Google Pay, bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

For large CHF transfers

Currency brokers

Private banks can usually do this too, but brokers streamline the process and you also get an account manager to handle the transfer.

For example, if you are buying property in Egypt or moving your wealth, a broker like Regency FX charges no fee and works on a margin instead (0.27% on CHF/EGP).

I suggest , since the more EGP you send the better rate you get.

Brokers charge no fees, so settle with the one that gives you the best CHF/EGP rate.

For companies paying across borders

Global accounts

Converting every payment separately adds extra work for Swiss businesses with regular costs in Egypt.

A global account lets you hold EGP alongside CHF and pay from the balance.

Wise Business, WorldFirst and Airwallex offer multi-currency accounts with business payment tools.

Ways to fund CHF and receive EGP in Egypt

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending CHF 6,000 gives your recipient 373,572.29 EGP.

The transfer can be paid for by bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

You can pay from your Swiss bank account

Send CHF to the account details provided by the company.

Use the exact reference so it can match the payment to your transfer.

TWINT is mainly for payments in Switzerland, so it does not replace an international transfer to Egypt.

In Egypt, they can get EGP delivered as bank deposit.

Things to know before sending CHF to Serbia

The exchange-rate margin usually matters more than the transfer fee from Switzerland. Gift tax and account protection also depend on details that are easy to miss.

Switzerland is in SEPA, but CHF is not a SEPA currency

Swiss banks can make SEPA payments in euros, but CHF transfer to a EGP requires a conversion.

Same goes for TWINT and Swiss instant payments.

Money transfer companies can take these as funding methods (since accounts are in Switzerland) but then they switch to an internal network of accounts.

Gift tax depends on your canton

Switzerland has no federal gift tax applied on transfers abroad.

Most cantons impose their own rules, with the amount due usually depending on the value of the gift and your relationship to the recipient.

The federal Swiss authorities explain the cantonal rules here.

Money transfer protection

Do not assume every app used in Switzerland is FINMA-authorised or covered by Swiss deposit insurance.

Some services operate under a foreign licence, and a Swiss virtual IBAN does not by itself create Swiss deposit protection.

Eligible deposits at participating Swiss banks are protected up to CHF 100,000 per customer and bank, but esisuisse confirms that a virtual IBAN or correspondent account may fall outside that protection.

If you’re in doubt about a money transfer company or app, check the legal company behind the service in the FINMA register.
