How to send money from Indonesia to Myanmar

Pick a company

For a one-off transfer from Indonesia, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is MoneyGram Agent.

MoneyGram Agent was the cheapest on 29 of the 29 days it quoted Rp4.200.000 transfers to Myanmar.

On a 4.200.000 IDR transfer, MoneyGram Agent delivers the most MMK.

This will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest running a live search to get the best IDR/MMK rate.

Fund your transfer

You can fund the transfer using bank transfer.

With money transfer companies, you're given a virtual account number to pay into, and in many cases (depending on the company) you can use BI-FAST to fund it.

It costs about Rp2,500 and caps at Rp250 million.

Verify and send

First time round you'll likely need your KTP and a selfie with it to verify your account.

Larger transfers need documents showing what the money is for (such as tuition letter or similar).

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send Rp 4.200.000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what Rp 4.200.000 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 IDR 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 MMK on every transfer from Indonesia.

Right now, MoneyGram Agent pays 446.209,91 MMK on 4.200.000 IDR, which is 48.260,29 MMK less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 453.805,23 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.

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 59 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 2 amounts over the past month.

  1. MoneyGram AgentAppeared in 29 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. Western Union AgentAppeared in 29 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 59 comparisons across 2 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 Agent is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

For cash pickup

In-person transfers

Only use agents that hold a Bank Indonesia transfer licence.

What to consider when sending IDR to Myanmar

The main check in Indonesia is whether the service is licensed to send money out. Many international brands only support transfers coming into the country.

Compare the IDR/MMK options

For a Rp4.200.000 transfer to Myanmar, start with the final option that gets you the most MMK.

Cheapest way to send money to Myanmar

The cheapest option is MoneyGram Agent, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 446.209,91 MMK, which is 0,03% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Myanmar

MoneyGram Agent delivers 446.209,91 MMK in minutes - 3 days when you pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit.

BI-FAST and QRIS are domestic only

BI-FAST can be used to deposit IDR to the transfer company's local account, but it does not send MMK to a person in Myanmar.

QRIS is also a payment system rather than an international person-to-person transfer.

The purpose matters on larger payments

Banks must record the purpose of an outgoing foreign-currency transfer and can ask for supporting documents such as invoices, agreements, etc.

Bank Indonesia's current foreign-exchange rules include documentation requirements once relevant thresholds are crossed.

Those thresholds and exemptions can change, so ask the bank what it needs before making a large transfer to Myanmar.
