How to send money from Malaysia to UAE

Pick a company

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

Regency FX was the cheapest on 29 of the 29 days it quoted RM8,200 transfers to UAE.

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 UAE.

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.

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 AED 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 AED on every transfer from Malaysia.

Right now, Regency FX pays 7,364.14 AED on 8,200 MYR, which is 19.94 AED less than the mid-market amount.

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

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 UAE.

We've tracked 92 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. XeAppeared in 57 comparisons

    Cheapest in 9% of them

  3. WiseAppeared in 92 comparisons

    Cheapest in 34% 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, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

Xe (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 9% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to UAE.

Ways to send money from Malaysia to UAE

There are 5 ways to send money from Malaysia to United Arab Emirates across 3 money transfer services.

Regular transfers from Malaysia

Online transfers

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

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 21 of the 29 days it quoted.

SST may appear separately on the fee.

Large transfers from Malaysia

Currency brokers

Brokers are best for large MYR transfers to United Arab Emirates.

Regency FX is a good option. They charge no fees and add 0.27% markup on the MYR/AED 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 United Arab Emirates, tuition fees, or moving savings from Malaysia to United Arab Emirates.

Holding multiple balances

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account is useful if you receive income from United Arab Emirates, or travel there often.

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

When converting MYR to AED, 8,200 MYR will get you 7,327.32 AED (after fees).

Ways to fund MYR and receive AED in UAE

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending MYR 8,200 gives your recipient 7,364.14 AED.

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 UAE.

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

The recipient can receive AED 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 United Arab Emirates.

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 UAE

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

Best ways to send MYR to UAE

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

  1. Cheapest - Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 7,364.14 AED, which is 0.37% more than the next best option.

  2. Fastest - Wise, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 7,327.32 AED in same day.

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 3 of them on MYR to United Arab Emirates, 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/AED 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.
