How to send money from Israel to South Korea

Pick a company

If it's your first transfer to South Korea, start with Regency FX which is the cheapest option for sending ₪25,000.

Regency FX was the cheapest on 29 of the 29 days it quoted ₪25,000 transfers to South Korea.

If you're planning to send less or more, I suggest to get the best ILS/KRW deal.

Fund your transfer

There are 1 ways to pay, including bank transfer.

Bit is Israel-only, so it can't reach an account abroad.

A transfer from your Israeli bank account is the usual way to deposit money to a money transfer company.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need your teudat zehut or passport.

If you're making a large transfer, tell your bank about it in advance, and keep your source-of-funds papers together.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send ₪25,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what ₪25,000 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 KRW per ILS 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 KRW on every transfer from Israel.

Right now, Regency FX pays 10,813,182.04 KRW on 25,000 ILS, which is 29,274.63 KRW less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 11,035,404.89 KRW.

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 South Korea.

We've tracked 78 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 4 amounts over the past month.

  1. Regency FXAppeared in 45 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. WiseAppeared in 78 comparisons

    Cheapest in 42% of them

  3. XeAppeared in 74 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 78 comparisons across 4 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 KRW, and it was also the cheapest in 100% of the 45 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

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

Wise (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 42% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to South Korea.

Consider this before sending ILS to South Korea

Israel does not cap ordinary foreign-currency transfers, but bank exchange-rate margins and source-of-funds checks can make the route expensive or slow.

Transfer limits from Israel

Israel removed quantitative foreign-exchange controls, so there is no annual personal allowance limiting a normal transfer of ILS abroad.

Your bank or money transfer company can still set a daily limit and ask for documents before releasing the payment.

How we analyse the market

Israel has no deposit insurance scheme, so a company's licence and how it holds client money matter more here than most places. We check both.

In the past 30 days alone, we analysed 78 comparisons across 4 amounts.

This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for ILS/KRW transfers. This is how we pick them:

  • Cheapest: the company that gets your recipient the most, after fees and the exchange rate. On a tie, live pricing from the company takes priority over the rates we collect by hand.

  • Fastest: the company with the shortest estimated delivery time once you’ve paid. On a tie, the one that pays out more takes priority.

We track 3 of them on ILS to South Korea in real time on live searches, comparing rates, fees and the ways to pay and collect, and each goes through our review.
