Why compare

GBP/MMK exchange rate

Best ways to pay & receive

Transfer speed

How to send money from UK to Myanmar

Pick a company

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

MoneyGram was the cheapest on 30 of the 30 days it quoted £6,000 transfers to Myanmar.

On a 6,000 GBP transfer, MoneyGram delivers the most MMK.

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

Fund your transfer

You have 3 ways to pay, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

Paying from your bank is usually the fastest, since most companies connect to 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 £6,000 transfer the verification is normally instant but can take a couple of hours.

GBP/MMK Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from UK to Myanmar?

The cheapest way to send GBP to MMK can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's MoneyGram), across 30 days of comparisons for 6,000 GBP transfers to Myanmar.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send £6,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what £6,000 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 MMK 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 30 of the last 30 days.

Right now, MoneyGram pays 31,543,356.60 MMK on 6,000 GBP, which is 14,592,207.01 MMK more than the mid-market amount, so it's a good deal (pretty much free money).

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 31,686,756.60 MMK.

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.

If you need to send money now, it's a good time to send.

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 Myanmar.

We've tracked 209 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 7 amounts over the past month.

MoneyGramAppeared in 176 comparisons
Cheapest in 50% of them
Regency FXAppeared in 118 comparisons
Cheapest in 26% of them

Based on 209 comparisons across 7 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 MoneyGram is the cheapest and gets you the most MMK, and it was also the cheapest in 50% of the 176 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

It's a good pick for both one-off and regular transfers to Myanmar.

Regency FX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 26% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Myanmar.

Ways to send money from the UK to Myanmar

There are many ways to send money to Myanmar from the UK, including online, app, in person, and currency broker, and more.

For small & frequent transfers

Money transfer apps

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

It charges £4.99 in fees, has -60.18% markup, lets you save recipient details, and MMK will arrive in minutes.

Over the past month, MoneyGram was the cheapest app on 100% of the days it appeared for £6,000 transfers.

For one off transfers

Online transfers

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

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

Of the 2 companies we compared, MoneyGram is the cheapest online service and will get you Ks31,543,356.60 on a £6,000 transfer.

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

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 Myanmar, and real human support.

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

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

Our analysis shows Regency FX was the cheapest broker in 100% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted.

For business transfers

Global accounts

Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.

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

Ways to fund GBP and receive MMK in Myanmar

Pay-in and pay-out methods will affect how much GBP you deposit and how much MMK your recipient gets. Use the table below to see how different options change how much you pay and what they get.

The overall best and cheapest way to send £6,000 to Myanmar is via MoneyGram, using a debit card to deposit GBP and cash pickup to receive MMK.

Depositing GBP

You have 3 pay-in options for transfers to Myanmar, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

The cheapest pay-in option is bank transfer.

The fastest option in the UK is almost always bank transfer, since most companies use Open Banking and Faster Payments System (FPS).

The most expensive deposit option is bank transfer.

Be careful with credit card deposits, since your bank often treats it as a cash advance and will charge interest.

Receiving money in Myanmar

Money can reach Myanmar by bank deposit, cash pickup, and mobile wallet, and each delivery method comes with its own fees.

The cheapest way to receive money in Myanmar is with bank deposit on average.

Receiving cash

MoneyGram is the cheapest option for cash pickup (getting you Ks31,543,356.60 on a £6,000 transfer).

Mobile wallets

You can receive MMK into a mobile wallet, which is useful since they don't need a bank account.

Consider this when sending GBP to Myanmar

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

Compare GBP/MMK transfer options

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

Cheapest way to send money to Myanmar

The cheapest way is to use MoneyGram, pay in with a debit card and withdraw via cash pickup. You will get Ks31,543,356.60, which is 46.41% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Myanmar

The fastest way is to use MoneyGram via debit card deposit and cash pickup for pay out. You get Ks31,543,356.60 and it will arrive in minutes - 24 hours.

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/MMK 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 £6,000 with MoneyGram will get you 31,543,356.60 MMK, that’s including £4.99 fee and -60.18% in exchange rate markup.

Taxes on money transfers

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

And, regular gifts from your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, with no cap and no seven-year wait, as long as you can still cover your usual living costs.

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.

For more information, check our guide to money transfer regulations in the UK.
