How to send money from Germany to Malaysia

Pick a company

For a one-off transfer from Germany, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Regency FX.

Regency FX was the cheapest on 23 of the 29 days it quoted €7,000 transfers to Malaysia.

On a 7,000 EUR transfer, Regency FX delivers the most MYR.

This will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest running a live search to get the best EUR/MYR rate.

Fund your transfer

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

Verify and send

First time round you'll need a photo ID and proof of your German address.

Video identification is also normal and takes a few minutes.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send €7,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what €7,000 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 MYR per EUR 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 MYR on every transfer from Germany.

Right now, Regency FX pays 31,644.4 MYR on 7,000 EUR, which is 85.68 MYR less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 32,378.03 MYR.

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.

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 Malaysia.

We've tracked 94 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 5 amounts over the past month.

  1. Regency FXAppeared in 44 comparisons

    Cheapest in 80% of them

  2. TapTap SendAppeared in 94 comparisons

  3. XeAppeared in 77 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 94 comparisons across 5 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.

TapTap Send (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 50% of its comparisons, so if you send money to Malaysia regularly, it's worth comparing it with Regency FX before each transfer.

Ways to send money from Germany to Malaysia

There are 8 companies for sending money from Germany to Malaysia, across app, broker, online, multi-currency account, global account, and in person, and more below.

Fastest and easiest way

Online and app transfers

Within the eurozone, SEPA covers all transfers, but outside, it gets very expensive and money transfer companies make it cheaper.

Sending €7,000 with TapTap Send to Malaysia gets you 31,640 MYR with a €0 fee and 0.28% markup.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 23 of the 30 days it quoted.

Debit cards (and Apple Pay / Google Pay) usually have instant deposits, but your girocard usually won't work as a funding method.

For paying in cash at a counter

In-person transfers

There's no legal limit on how much you can send, so the counter in the kiosk, the callshop or the grocery store is still a popular way to send money internationally.

Deposit €7,000 to MoneyGram online, and choose cash pickup as delivery option. Once you pay, it should be available in minutes.

Our data shows MoneyGram came out cheapest among in-person options on 97% of days in the past month.

In general, online transfers are cheaper than sending cash to Malaysia.

For large transfers from Germany

Currency brokers

For buying property, moving to Malaysia, or moving pensions, a currency broker is the best option.

A broker like Regency FX charges no fee and works on a margin. It adds 0.27% on EUR/MYR which gets negotiated the more you send.

And you get an account manager to help you through the process.

Our analysis shows Regency FX was the cheapest broker in 100% of the transfers from €7,000 it quoted.

For some international payments above €50,000, German residents may need to file an AWV report with the Bundesbank, make sure to check in advance.

For making business payments

Global accounts

Global accounts are for businesses making payments to Malaysia.

Be it overseas suppliers and contractors, receiving MYR payments, or holding MYR and EUR in one business account.

Companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Wise Business offer the best tools for international business transfers.

For spending & receiving

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account lets you hold EUR and MYR in one account.

You get MYR bank details, and can receive international payments like rent, dividends, family payments without additional conversions.

You can convert MYR to EUR or EUR to MYR whenever you need.

The best multi-currency account is Wise, it adds ~-0.01% markup and charges small fees.

Over the past month, it came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 100% of days.

Ways to fund EUR and receive MYR in Malaysia

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest way. Sending €7,000 gives your recipient 31,644.4 MYR.

You can pay for the transfer using bank transfer, debit card, credit card, and iDEAL.

Using German bank

A SEPA bank transfer is usually the cheapest way to deposit EUR.

An instant SEPA payment can reduce funding time, but it does not guarantee instant delivery to Malaysia.

The recipient in Malaysia can receive MYR by bank deposit, mobile wallet, card deposit, duitnow, and cash pickup.

To receive MYR by bank deposit

Enter the recipient's banking details and account holder's name.

Check both before sending because correcting a bank deposit will delay the transfer.

They can receive cash in Malaysia

For cash pickup, the recipient needs to visit the nearest MoneyGram branch and bring a valid photo ID and the transfer reference number.

Things to know before sending money from Germany to Malaysia

The main question in Germany is whether you are sending euros inside SEPA or converting them. Large cross-border payments can also create a Bundesbank reporting duty.

Compare EUR/MYR transfer options

For a €7,000 transfer to Malaysia, these are the best options:

Cheapest way to send money to Malaysia

The cheapest option is Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 31,644.4 MYR, which is 0.01% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Malaysia

The fastest option is Revolut. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 31,525.97 MYR in within minutes.

Transfers over €50,000 may get reported

Germany's AWV reporting threshold is €50,000.

A German resident may need to report a payment above that amount to the Bundesbank when it is made to a non-resident.

It is a statistics report, not a tax or permission request.

Transfers between your own domestic and foreign accounts are exempt, and other exemptions apply depending on the payment purpose.

The automated AWV notice shown by a bank does not mean every transfer is reportable.

The Bundesbank guidance for private individuals explains who reports, what is exempt and how to file.

SEPA and SWIFT are different

If the recipient has a euro account in the SEPA area, a normal SEPA payment can be the simplest option.

A payment converted into MYR sits outside that pricing rule and may involve another bank or payout partner.

Check whether the quote uses SHA, OUR or BEN charges on a bank transfer.

This decides whether intermediary costs are shared, paid by you or deducted from what the recipient receives.

How we analyse the market

Nothing reaches this table without going through our review first, and every company is BaFin-registered or passported into Germany.

We then track 8 of them on EUR to Malaysia, comparing rates, fees and the pay-in and payout options.

In the past 30 days alone, we analysed 94 comparisons across 5 amounts.

This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for EUR/MYR transfers. This is how we pick them:

  • Cheapest: the company that gets your recipient the most, after fees and the exchange rate. On a tie, live pricing from the company takes priority over the rates we collect by hand.

  • Fastest: the company with the shortest estimated delivery time once you’ve paid. On a tie, the one that pays out more takes priority.
