Transfer details
For a one-off transfer to Syria, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is MoneyGram.
On a 6,000 GBP transfer, MoneyGram delivers the most SYP.
The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/SYP 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.
There are many ways to send money to Syria from the UK, including broker, online, app, and in person, and more.
For small & frequent transfers
If you send small amounts back home to Syria, say weekly or monthly, an app like MoneyGram is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.
It charges £4.99 in fees, has 196.39% markup, lets you save recipient details, and SYP will arrive in minutes.
For one off transfers
Sending money online is good for occasional medium sized SYP transfers, around £1,000 - £5,000.
Online companies like MoneyGram often have higher limits and/or first time promos.
Of 1 online services, MoneyGram is the cheapest and will get you £962,792.4 on £6,000 transfer.
For large transfers
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 Syria, and 24/7 support.
Regency FX charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 0.27% markup on top of the current GBP/SYP 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 Syria, but is usually a bit more more expensive.
You will need to deposit £6,000 online via MoneyGram, and your recipient in Syria will be able to collect £962,792.4 in minutes.
For business transfers
Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.
For suppliers, freelancers, salaries, or invoices in Syria, 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 SYP your recipient gets. Use the table below to see how different options change how much you pay and what they get.

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Syria such as limits, taxes, and safety.
Right now, these are the best money transfer options for £6,000 transfer to Syria:
Cheapest way to send money to Syria
The cheapest way is to use MoneyGram, pay in with a debit card and withdraw via cash pickup. You will get £962,792.4, which is -10843.89% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Syria
The fastest way is to use MoneyGram via debit card deposit and cash pickup for pay out. You get £962,792.4 and it will arrive in minutes - 24 hours.
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/SYP 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 £962,792.4 with MoneyGram will get you 962,792.4 SYP, that’s including £4.99 fee and 196.39% in exchange rate markup.
A bank like on the other hand, will get you £0, that’s £ in fees but % in FX fees.
There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Syria.
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.

The exchange rate you secure impacts how much SYP you get for your GBP, so waiting a day or two can get you more Syrian Pound.
