How to send money from UK to Kazakhstan

Pick a company

For a one-off GBP transfer to Kazakhstan, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Wise.

Wise was the cheapest on 22 of the 30 days it quoted £1,500 transfers to Kazakhstan.

On a 1,500 GBP transfer, Wise delivers the most KZT.

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

Fund your transfer

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

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.

Verify and send

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

On a £1,500 transfer it's normally instant but can take a couple of hours.

Compare amounts

Exchange rateFeeRecipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send £1,500, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what £1,500 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 KZT per GBP than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

In the past month, a money transfer company beat the mid-market rate on 4 of the last 30 days.

Right now, Wise pays 903,740.58 KZT on 1,500 GBP, which is 9,117.32 KZT less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout is the highest in the past month.

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 Kazakhstan.

We've tracked 226 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 8 amounts over the past month.

  1. WiseAppeared in 225 comparisons

    Cheapest in 43% of them

  2. RevolutAppeared in 214 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

  3. XoomAppeared in 27 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 226 comparisons across 8 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 Wise is the cheapest and gets you the most KZT, but it was the cheapest in only 43% of the 225 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

Revolut (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 0% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Kazakhstan.

If it's a one-off transfer, go with Wise, since it's the cheapest right now.

Ways to send money from the UK to Kazakhstan

There are many ways to send money to Kazakhstan from the UK, including app, online, multi-currency account, and global account, and more.

For small & frequent transfers

Money transfer apps

If you send small amounts back home to Kazakhstan, say weekly or monthly, an app like Wise is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.

It charges £13.23 in fees, has 0.12% markup, lets you save recipient details, and KZT will arrive in minutes.

Over the past month, Wise was the cheapest app on 73% of the days it appeared for £1,500 transfers.

For one off transfers

Online transfers

Sending money online is good for occasional medium sized KZT transfers, around £1,000 - £5,000.

Online companies like Wise often have higher limits and/or first time promos.

Of the 3 companies we compared, Wise is the cheapest online service and will get you ₸903,740.58 on a £1,500 transfer.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 22 of the 30 days it quoted.

For large transfers

Brokers

Currency brokers like TorFX or Key Currency, are the best for sending large amounts (£10k+) to Kazakhstan.

They charge no fees but add a percentage on top of the GBP/KZT interbank rate (which gets better the more you send).

We suggest to compare your options.

For spending and receiving

Multi-currency accounts

Multi-currency accounts let you hold and spend Tenge abroad like a local.

Wise offers the best multi-currency account.

With it, converting £1,500 to KZT will get you ₸903,740.58 after fees.

If you don’t have KZT in your account, your GBP will auto-convert whenever you pay with Wise in Kazakhstan.

Once you have KZT in the account, there are no extra fees from Wise for spending or holding it (local ATM charges may still apply).

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

For business transfers

Global accounts

Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.

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

Consider this when sending GBP to Kazakhstan

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Kazakhstan such as limits, taxes, and safety.

Compare GBP/KZT transfer options

Right now, these are the best money transfer options for a £1,500 transfer to Kazakhstan:

Cheapest way to send money to Kazakhstan

The cheapest way is to use Wise, pay in with a bank transfer and withdraw via bank deposit. You will get ₸903,740.58, which is 1.03% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Kazakhstan

The fastest way is to use Revolut via debit card deposit and bank deposit for pay out. You get ₸894,415.21 and it will arrive in within minutes.

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/KZT transfers (roughly £10,000 up) expect a source-of-funds check, such as a payslip or a statement.

These are anti-money-laundering checks, and they can hold your transfer up, so have the documents ready.

The transfer costs involved

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

For example, sending £1,500 with Wise will get you 903,740.58 KZT, that’s including £13.23 fee and 0.12% in exchange rate markup.

A bank like on the other hand, will get you ₸0, that’s £ in fees but % in FX fees.

Taxes on money transfers

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

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.
