How to send money from Malaysia to Sri Lanka

Pick a company

I suggest starting with Regency FX which is the cheapest option for sending RM8,200.

Regency FX was the cheapest on 30 of the 30 days it quoted RM8,200 transfers to Sri Lanka.

Fund your transfer

There are a few ways to fund your transfer, including bank transfer and fpx.

DuitNow and FPX are most common, both free and instant from your banking app.

This is for funding your money transfer account, not direct transfers to Sri Lanka.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need your IC, or a passport and permit if you're a foreign worker.

Run a new recipient's account through Semak Mule before you send to confirm their details.

MYR/LKR Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from Malaysia to Sri Lanka?

The cheapest way to send MYR to LKR can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's Regency FX), across 30 days of comparisons for 8,200 MYR transfers to Sri Lanka.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send RM 8,200, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what RM 8,200 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 LKR per MYR 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 LKR on every transfer from Malaysia.

Right now, Regency FX pays 667,866.78 LKR on 8,200 MYR, which is 1,808.12 LKR less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout is the highest in the past month.

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 Sri Lanka.

We've tracked 92 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 4 amounts over the past month.

Regency FXAppeared in 46 comparisons
Cheapest every time
WiseAppeared in 92 comparisons
Cheapest in 28% of them

Based on 92 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 LKR, and it was also the cheapest in 100% of the 46 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

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

Wise (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 28% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Sri Lanka.

Ways to send money from Malaysia to Sri Lanka

There are 5 ways to send money from Malaysia to Sri Lanka across 2 money transfer services.

Regular transfers from Malaysia

Online transfers

Online services and apps work well for smaller transfers sent home every month.

Wise charges MYR 74.76 and 0.17% markup to send MYR 8,200 and your recipient gets SLRs662,460.57 in within minutes.

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

SST may appear separately on the fee.

Large transfers from Malaysia

Currency brokers

Brokers are best for large MYR transfers to Sri Lanka.

Regency FX is a good option. They charge no fees and add 0.27% markup on the MYR/LKR exchange rate.

Our analysis shows Regency FX was the cheapest broker in 100% of all the transfers it quoted.

You get an account manager to handle your transfer, and it’s useful for things like home purchases in Sri Lanka, tuition fees, or moving savings from Malaysia to Sri Lanka.

Holding multiple balances

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account is useful if you receive income from Sri Lanka, or travel there often.

Wise lets you hold MYR and LKR in one account, and convert between them when you need.

When converting MYR to LKR, 8,200 MYR will get you 662,460.57 LKR (after fees).

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

Ways to fund MYR and receive LKR in Sri Lanka

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending MYR 8,200 gives your recipient 667,866.78 LKR.

You can fund your transfer in MYR through bank transfer and fpx.

Paying through online banking (FPX)

Choose fpx at checkout and approve the payment through your Malaysian bank.

This is the simplest and quickest way to fund your account when sending money to Sri Lanka.

The processing fee may include SST, so double check the final LKR amount first.

The recipient can receive LKR through bank deposit.

They can receive money directly to the bank or card

For a card and bank deposit, you will need the recipient's account name, account number and bank details in Sri Lanka.

Double check the info, since it's very hard to stop or reverse once it leaves your account.

Things to check before sending MYR to Sri Lanka

Here are a few things to know about money transfers from Malaysia to Sri Lanka.

Best ways to send MYR to Sri Lanka

For a RM 8,200 transfer, these are the best options:

Cheapest - Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 667,866.78 LKR, which is 0.81% more than the next best option.
Fastest - Wise, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 662,460.57 LKR in within minutes.

Transfers and overseas investments are different

Malaysia's Foreign Exchange Policy does not impose the overseas-investment limit on an ordinary payment for family support, education, goods or services.

Different rules can apply when a resident converts ringgit to invest in foreign-currency assets, particularly if they have domestic ringgit borrowing.

Bank Negara Malaysia keeps the current FEP rules and notices here.

Documents needed

A bank or licensed money services business can ask what the payment is for and where the money came from.

Keep the quote, receipt and any supporting invoice or employment record to hand over if needed.

Check the recipient before you send

For a new bank account, check the recipient details through the Royal Malaysia Police Semak Mule service first.

Only use a bank or money transfer service regulated by Bank Negara Malaysia.

Check the company in BNM's list of licensed MSB operators before paying an unfamiliar agent.

If you realise you have sent money to a scammer, contact your bank and call the National Scam Response Centre on 997.

How we analyse the market

Every company here holds a Bank Negara money services licence, and the register is public if you want to check one yourself.

We track 2 of them on MYR to Sri Lanka, comparing rates, fees and the ways to pay in and collect, refreshed in real time on live comparisons.

In the past 30 days alone, we analysed 92 comparisons across 4 amounts.

This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for MYR/LKR 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.
