How to send money from China to New Zealand

Pick a company

I suggest starting with Regency FX which is the cheapest option for sending 元50,000.

Regency FX was the cheapest on 29 of the 29 days it quoted 元50,000 transfers to New Zealand.

Fund your transfer

You have 2 ways to pay, including bank transfer and alipay.

A transfer from your Chinese bank account is the standard way, and you may be asked for the purpose of the transfer.

Some companies also take an Alipay top-up if you're a foreign resident.

Verify and send

What you need depends on who you are.

Foreign residents make transfers against a tax certificate, which is what sets your transfer limit.

Chinese citizens are limited by the yearly allowance, with the transfer purpose documented at the bank.

CNY/NZD Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from China to New Zealand?

The cheapest way to send CNY to NZD can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's Regency FX), across 30 days of comparisons for 50,000 CNY transfers to New Zealand.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send ¥50,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what ¥50,000 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 NZD per CNY 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 NZD on every transfer from China.

Right now, Regency FX pays 13,257.26 NZD on 50,000 CNY, which is 35.89 NZD less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 13,497.31 NZD.

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 New Zealand.

We've tracked 59 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 2 amounts over the past month.

Regency FXAppeared in 29 comparisons
Cheapest every time
WiseAppeared in 57 comparisons

MoneycorpAppeared in 56 comparisons
Never the cheapest

Based on 59 comparisons across 2 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 analyse companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).

Today Regency FX is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

Wise (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 53% of its comparisons, so if you send money to New Zealand regularly, it's worth comparing it with Regency FX before each transfer.

Ways to send money from China to New Zealand

There are 3 companies that send money from China to New Zealand.

For sending salary abroad

Online transfers

Foreign residents can send their after-tax salary out of China to New Zealand.

The money transfer service will ask for tax records and set the sending limit based on verified income.

With Wise your recipient gets 13,212.48 NZD on a 元50,000 transfer in next day.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 28 of the 28 days it quoted.

You can use Alipay to fund the transfer to New Zealand, but it can't send money abroad by itself.

For paying overseas suppliers

Global accounts

Documented trade payments are supported by invoices and sit outside the personal foreign-exchange allowance.

WorldFirst and Payoneer can manage regular business payments from China to New Zealand and foreign-currency balances.

Ways to fund CNY and receive NZD in New Zealand

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending 元50,000 gives your recipient 13,257.26 NZD.

You pay for your transfer from China using bank transfer and alipay.

Paying through a mainland Chinese bank

Your bank may ask for the transfer purpose and supporting documents before allowing you to send money to New Zealand.

Education, family support and your own overseas expenses may require different evidence.

For withdrawal in New Zealand, you can choose bank deposit.

Consider this when sending CNY to New Zealand

The legal route depends on whether you are a Chinese citizen converting personal foreign exchange or a foreign worker sending taxed salary abroad.

Compare the available CNY/NZD options

There are 3 companies in this comparison for a CNY 50,000 transfer to New Zealand. This example assumes an eligible foreign worker is sending documented salary to an account in their own name.

Cheapest way to send money to New Zealand

The cheapest option is Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your account in New Zealand receives 13,257.26 NZD, which is 0.34% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to New Zealand

Regency FX delivers 13,257.26 NZD in minutes - 24 hours using the same bank transfer and bank deposit chain.

Chinese citizens have allowance

A Chinese citizen can normally purchase up to the equivalent of US$50,000 in foreign currency per calendar year for permitted personal current-account uses.

The allowance is not permission to buy overseas property or securities.

Do not borrow another person's allowance or split a payment to get around the rule.

For tuition or another documented overseas service, the bank can process the payment against the admission letter, invoice and other evidence it requests.

Foreign workers can send documented salary

A foreign resident's lawful after-tax salary follows a different route from the citizen allowance.

The bank or transfer company will usually ask for a passport, work or residence permit, tax record and evidence of salary.

The amount you can send is tied to income you can document.

Keep the tax certificate and bank salary records together before sending money home.

Alipay and WeChat Pay

Alipay can fund the Chinese side when a supported transfer company offers it.

Alipay and WeChat Pay do not provide unrestricted person-to-person transfers from China to New Zealand.

The transfer still needs a permitted purpose or documented taxed income.

Avoid any person who promises to move unlimited money through private accounts, crypto or somebody else's quota.

How we analyse the market

We only list companies that can send money out of mainland China, which is a short list and depends on whether you're a resident or a foreign national.
