Transfer details
For a one-off transfer to Indonesia, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Regency FX.
On a 6,000 GBP transfer, Regency FX delivers the most IDR.
The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/IDR rate.
You have 3 ways to pay, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.
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.
How much GBP you send to Indonesia heavily affects the best ways and the cheapest options. Use the table below to check how the cheapest options change and how much more you'd get by comparing.

There are many ways to send money to Indonesia from the UK, including app, broker, online, multi-currency account, global account, and in person, and more.
For small & frequent transfers
If you send small amounts back home to Indonesia, say weekly or monthly, an app like Wise is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.
It charges £24.61 in fees, has -0.03% markup, lets you save recipient details, and IDR will arrive in minutes.
For one off transfers
Sending money online is good for occasional medium sized IDR transfers, around £1,000 - £5,000.
Online companies like Wise often have higher limits and/or first time promos.
Of 1 online services, Wise is the cheapest and will get you Rp141,876,075 on £6,000 transfer.

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 Indonesia, and 24/7 support.
Regency FX charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 0.27% markup on top of the current GBP/IDR rate.
The markup gets better the more GBP you send, so we suggest .
For fast money transfers
Sending cash is the fastest way to send money from the UK to Indonesia, but is usually a bit more more expensive.
You will need to deposit £6,000 online via MoneyGram, and your recipient in Indonesia will be able to collect Rp140,950,943.4 in minutes.
For spending and receiving
Multi-currency accounts let you hold and spend Rupiahs abroad like a local.
Wise offers the best multi-currency account.
With it, converting £6,000 to IDR will get you Rp141,876,075 after fees.
If you don’t have IDR in your account, your GBP will auto-convert whenever you pay with Wise in Indonesia.
Once you have IDR in the account, there are no extra fees from Wise for spending or holding it (local ATM charges may still apply).
For business transfers
Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.
For suppliers, freelancers, salaries, or invoices in Indonesia, companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle batch and recurring payments a consumer app simply can’t.
Pay-in and pay-out methods will affect how much GBP you deposit and how much IDR your recipient gets. Use the table below to see how different options change how much you pay and what they get.

The most expensive deposit option is credit card.
Be careful with credit card deposits, since your bank often treats it as a cash advance and will charge interest.
Money can reach Indonesia by bank deposit, mobile wallet, mobile money, cash pickup, and card deposit, and each delivery method comes with its own fees.

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Indonesia such as limits, taxes, and safety.
Right now, these are the best money transfer options for £6,000 transfer to Indonesia:
Cheapest way to send money to Indonesia
The cheapest way is to use Regency FX, pay in with a bank transfer and withdraw via bank deposit. You will get Rp142,037,926.74, which is 0.11% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Indonesia
The fastest way is to use Wise via bank transfer deposit and bank deposit for pay out. You get Rp141,876,075 and it will arrive in within minutes.
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/IDR 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.
Your cost is the fee plus the exchange-rate margin.
For example, sending Rp142,037,926.74 with Regency FX will get you 142,037,926.74 IDR, that’s including £0 fee and 0.27% in exchange rate markup.
A bank like on the other hand, will get you Rp0, that’s £ in fees but % in FX fees.
There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Indonesia.
And, regular gifts out of your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, no cap and no seven-year wait.
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.
For more information, check our guide to money transfer regulations in the UK.
The exchange rate you secure impacts how much IDR you get for your GBP, so waiting a day or two can get you more Rupiahs.
Mid-market rate:1 GBP = 23,921.217547 IDR
