How to send money from India to Bahrain

Pick a company

For a one-off INR transfer to Bahrain, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Wise.

Wise was the cheapest on 30 of the 30 days it quoted ₹22,100 transfers to Bahrain.

On a 22,100 INR transfer, Wise delivers the most BHD.

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

Fund your transfer

You can fund your transfer via bank transfer.

Most people pay with UPI straight from their banking app, and it reaches the money transfer company account in seconds.

For a large amount (10+ lakhs), ask for RTGS instead, it clears quicker than the everyday rails.

Verify and send

You'll need your PAN and a signed Form A2 before the money can leave the country.

Start a first transfer a few days early.

Exchange rateFeeRecipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send ₹22,100, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what ₹22,100 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 BHD per INR 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 BHD on every transfer from India.

Right now, Wise pays 81.68 BHD on 22,100 INR, which is 6.07 BHD less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 82.19 BHD.

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 Bahrain.

We've tracked 168 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 7 amounts over the past month.

  1. WiseAppeared in 167 comparisons

    Cheapest in 67% of them

  2. PayPal App (P2P Transfer)Appeared in 30 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

  3. MoneyGram AgentAppeared in 30 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 168 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 Wise is the cheapest and gets you the most BHD, and it was also the cheapest in 67% of the 167 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

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

Ways to send money from India to Bahrain

You have 3 options to send money to Bahrain from India.

Easiest way to send INR

Online transfers

Online services and apps are simple and cheap for INR to Bahrain transfers.

It works well for tuition deposits, living costs, and other ongoing payments to Bahrain.

Wise charges 1486.51 INR in fees to send ₹22,100, which will get your recipient around 81.68 BHD.

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

Spending and receiving

Multi-currency accounts

With Wise you can hold INR and BHD in one account and swap between them when you need.

Over the past month, Wise came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 100% of days.

And you get BHD and INR banking details to receive payments.

Useful if you’re studying in Bahrain, travelling there often, or getting paid in BHD.

Making business payments

Global accounts

Business payments supported by an invoice do not use the owner’s personal LRS allowance.

Wise Business, Instarem Business, and Payoneer can manage freelancer payments, batch payments to Bahrain, invoices, and more.

Ways to fund INR and receive BHD in Bahrain

With Wise, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending ₹22,100 gives your recipient 81.68 BHD.

UPI can fund the INR side when the company supports it, but the outward remittance still leaves India through an RBI-authorised bank.

From India, you can fund your transfer to Bahrain using bank transfer.

Fund the outward remittance through your bank

Fund the transfer by bank transfer from your Indian account.

You will normally need your PAN, Form A2 and documents showing the purpose of the transfer.

In Bahrain, your recipient can receive BHD by bank deposit.

Consider this before sending INR to Bahrain

Outward transfers from India sit under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme. The purpose decides the documents and how much TCS is collected upfront.

Compare INR/BHD transfer options

For an INR 22,100 transfer to Bahrain, the current options are:

  1. The cheapest option is Wise, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 81.68 BHD, which is 3.05% more than the next best option.

  2. The fastest option is PayPal App (P2P Transfer), funded by bank transfer with bank deposit in Bahrain. Your recipient gets 79.19 BHD in minutes.

The LRS limit covers all your outward transfers

A resident individual can remit up to USD 250,000 in one financial year under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme for permitted current and capital-account transactions.

The limit is per person and covers your combined LRS use, including gifts, maintenance, study, travel and overseas investment.

It is not a separate allowance for every bank or transfer company.

The authorised money transfer company will normally ask for your PAN, Form A2 and a purpose code.

The RBI LRS direction explains the yearly limit and permitted use.

TCS can lock up cash until your tax return

TCS is collected on qualifying LRS remittances above the annual threshold.

From April 2026, education and medical remittances are generally collected at 2% above ₹10 lakh, while many other purposes carry 20% above the threshold.

Education funded by a qualifying loan does not attract TCS.

TCS is a tax credit rather than an extra transfer fee. You can claim it against your final tax bill, but the money remains unavailable until it is adjusted or refunded.

Add up your LRS payments across banks before sending. The bank or transfer company will need your earlier use to apply the threshold correctly.

UPI only funds the rupee side

UPI can be used to deposit money to a money transfer company, but it can’t send BHD to Bahrain.

Instead, a money transfer company will switch to a local network of bank accounts or local rails to move INR to BHD.

All outward remittance still passes through an RBI-authorised dealer.

How we analyse the market

Money only leaves India through an RBI-authorised dealer, so that's the first filter on this table.

We track 3 of them on INR to Bahrain, comparing rates, fees and the ways you can pay in, refreshed in real time on live comparisons.

In the past 30 days alone, we analysed 168 comparisons across 7 amounts.

This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for INR/BHD 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.

Each one also goes through our review, and hand-collected pricing is marked as such.
