How to send money from UK to Suriname

Pick a company

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

Regency FX was the cheapest on 29 of the 29 days it quoted £6,000 transfers to Suriname.

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

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

Fund your transfer

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.

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 it's normally instant but can take a couple of hours.

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 SRD per GBP than the mid-market rate can offer.

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

No company, app or bank beat the mid-market rate over the past month, meaning you lose a bit of SRD on every transfer from UK.

Right now, Regency FX pays 299,520.38 SRD on 6,000 GBP, which is 810.9 SRD less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 302,743.59 SRD.

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.

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 Suriname.

We've tracked 196 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 7 amounts over the past month.

  1. Regency FXAppeared in 104 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. TransferGoAppeared in 93 comparisons

    Cheapest in 47% of them

  3. MoneyGramAppeared in 165 comparisons

    Cheapest in 17% of them

Based on 196 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 Regency FX is the cheapest and gets you the most SRD, and it was also the cheapest in 100% of the 104 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

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

Ways to send money from the UK to Suriname

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

For small & frequent transfers

Money transfer apps

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

It charges £0 in fees, has 2.43% markup, lets you save recipient details, and SRD will arrive in minutes.

Over the past month, TransferGo 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 SRD transfers, around £1,000 - £5,000.

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

Of the 4 companies we compared, TransferGo is the cheapest online service and will get you SR$293,112.6 on a £6,000 transfer.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 16 of the 16 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 Suriname, and 24/7 support.

Regency FX charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 0.27% markup on top of the current GBP/SRD 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 fast money transfers

Cash transfer

Sending cash is the fastest way to send money from the UK to Suriname, but is usually a bit more expensive.

You will need to deposit £6,000 online via MoneyGram, and your recipient in Suriname will be able to collect SR$291,042.6 in minutes.

Our data shows MoneyGram came out cheapest among in-person options on 100% of days in the past month.

For spending and receiving

Multi-currency accounts

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

Wise offers the best multi-currency account.

With it, converting £6,000 to SRD will get you SR$282,873.12 after fees.

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

Once you have SRD 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 Suriname, companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle batch and recurring payments a consumer app simply can’t.

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/SRD 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 Regency FX will get you 299,520.38 SRD, that’s including £0 fee and 0.27% in exchange rate markup.

A bank like on the other hand, will get you SR$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 Suriname.

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.
