What to consider when sending money from Spain

Here are a few things to know before sending money from Spain to Iraq.

Find the best EUR/IQD transfer

These are the current best options for sending €300 to Iraq:

Cheapest option

Use .د.ع442,186.8, pay by debit card and choose cash pickup for the payout. Your recipient gets 442,186.8 IQD, which is 8.65% more than the next best option.

Fastest option

With MoneyGram, a debit card payment to cash pickup gives your recipient 442,186.8 IQD in minutos - 24 horas.

SEPA & IQD are different

SEPA and SEPA Instant only work within the Eurozone, and Bizum largely operates in Spain.

Sending EUR to Iraq is different because it needs a currency conversion.

SEPA or SEPA Instant can be used to fund the transfer itself (since both are in EUR), but it does not guarantee instant transfer to Iraq.

Expect questions on a large payment

Your bank or transfer company can ask for a justificante showing the source and purpose of a large or unusual transfer.

Keep the sale agreement for property, an invoice for tuition or a bank statement for savings.

Ask your bank to raise its own online transfer limit before the payment is due, rather than splitting a payment to avoid a check.

Staying safe when sending money

A payment or electronic-money institution is not the same as a bank, so do not assume its stored balance has bank deposit protection.

For bank deposits, protection normally comes from the deposit guarantee scheme in the bank's home country.

For a transfer service, check how customer money is safeguarded and avoid leaving a large balance there longer than needed.

When in doubt, use the Banco de Espana register to check the legal entity behind a transfer service.
