How to send money from UK to Djibouti

Pick a company

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

On a 6,000 GBP transfer, Regency FX delivers the most DJF.

The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/DJF rate.

Fund your transfer

You have 1 ways to pay, including bank transfer.

Paying from your bank is usually both cheapest and quickest, since most companies connect straight into your banking app via Open Banking.

Anywhere a debit card works, Apple Pay and Google Pay usually do too.

First time round you'll need to confirm your name, date of birth, address and a photo ID.

On £6,000 transfer it's normally instant but can take a couple hours.

Ways to send money from the UK to Djibouti

There are many ways to send money to Djibouti from the UK, including broker, and more.

For large transfers

Brokers

Currency brokers like Regency FX are the best for £10,000+ transfers (things like house deposits, education fees, relocation, etc.).

You get a dedicated account manager to handle your transfer to Djibouti, and 24/7 support.

Regency FX charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 0.27% markup on top of the current GBP/DJF rate.

The markup gets better the more GBP you send, so we suggest .

For business transfers

Global accounts

Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.

For suppliers, freelancers, salaries, or invoices in Djibouti, companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle batch and recurring payments a consumer app simply can’t.

Compare GBP/DJF transfer options

Right now, these are the best money transfer options for £6,000 transfer to Djibouti:

Cheapest way to send money to Djibouti

Fastest way to send money to Djibouti

UK transfer limits

There is no legal limit and no tax on sending your own money abroad.

Main hard limits come from your bank or money transfer company, often around £10,000 to £25,000 online (which you can usually increase in the app).

Also, the "£10,000 declaration" only applies to physically carrying cash through the border, not online transfers.

And on bigger GBP/DJF transfers (roughly £10,000 up) expect a source-of-funds check, such as a payslip or a statement.

That's anti-money-laundering checks, but it holds transfers up, so be prepared.

The transfer costs involved

Your cost is the fee plus the exchange-rate margin.

For example, sending Fdj1,414,140.06 with Regency FX will get you 1,414,140.06 DJF, that’s including £0 fee and 0.27% in exchange rate markup.

A bank like on the other hand, will get you Fdj0, that’s £ in fees but % in FX fees.

Taxes on money transfers

There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Djibouti.

And, regular gifts out of your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, no cap and no seven-year wait.

Staying safe when sending abroad

Only ever use a provider authorised by the FCA, which you can check on the FCA register in under a minute.

The rules in place for any scams cover domestic pound transfers only, on a transfer abroad you're less protected.

Always confirm who you're really sending to before you send, because there's little recourse after.
