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

8 companies send money from Switzerland to Romania, across broker, online, app, multi-currency account, and global account, and more.
For one-off 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 33,411.09 RON.
The fee is 18.47 CHF, with a -0.01% on top of CHF/RON rate.
For spending and receiving
A multi-currency account is useful if you earn in Swiss francs but spend money in RON (be it payments or travelling).
Wise converts CHF 6,000 with a -0.01% exchange-rate markup and lets you hold CHF and RON in one account.
For regular transfers
For the monthly transfer to family, money transfers apps are the easiest to start with.
Wise charges fr.18.47 on a fr.6,000 transfer, and the money lands next day.
You can also save recipients and create automated scheduled transfers to Romania.
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
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 Romania or moving your wealth, a broker like Key Currency charges no fee and works on a margin instead (0.25% on CHF/RON).
I suggest , since the more RON you send the better rate you get.
Brokers charge no fees, so settle with the one that gives you the best CHF/RON rate.
For companies paying across borders
Converting every payment separately adds extra work for Swiss businesses with regular costs in Romania.
A global account lets you hold RON alongside CHF and pay from the balance.
Wise Business, WorldFirst and Airwallex offer multi-currency accounts with business payment tools.
With Key Currency, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending CHF 6,000 gives your recipient 33,428.59 RON.
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 Romania.
In Romania, they can get RON delivered as bank deposit.

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.
For a CHF 6,000 transfer to Romania, these are the best options in our comparison.
Cheapest way to send money to Romania
The cheapest option is Key Currency, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 33,428.59 RON, which is 0.02% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Romania
The fastest option is Revolut. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 33,166.44 RON in same day.
Swiss banks can make SEPA payments in euros, but CHF transfer to a RON 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.
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.
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.
The rate you secure determines how much RON arrives for your CHF. The weekly average is a simple benchmark for comparing today's offers.
