How to send money from New Zealand to Indonesia

Pick a company

If you're sending a one-off transfer, then Wise is the best option.

Wise was the cheapest on 25 of the 30 days it quoted NZ$10,000 transfers to Indonesia.

For recurring transfers, I'd suggest using an app or a multi-currency account like Wise.

For large transfers (NZ$10k+), a broker like OFX is usually the best option.

New Zealand has no instant payment rail, so plan for the money to leave your account slower than you'd expect.

How much you send will affect the best option for you right now, so I suggest .

Fund your transfer

You can pay for the transfer via bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

Bank transfers settle in batches a few times a business day, so a Friday evening payment can sit until Monday.

If you and the money transfer company use the same bank, it'll usually settle in seconds.

Verify and send

For your first transfer you'll need a photo ID and proof of address.

Nothing checks the recipient's name against the account number on an international transfer, so make sure to double check it.

Compare amounts

Exchange rateFees:Recipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send $10,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what $10,000 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 IDR per NZD than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

In the past month, a money transfer company beat the mid-market rate on 1 of the last 30 days.

Right now, Wise pays 101,361,419 IDR on 10,000 NZD, which is 330,093.20 IDR less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 102,968,875 IDR.

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 Indonesia.

We've tracked 147 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 5 amounts over the past month.

  1. WiseAppeared in 145 comparisons

    Cheapest in 48% of them

  2. OFXAppeared in 138 comparisons

    Cheapest in 5% of them

  3. RevolutAppeared in 140 comparisons

    Cheapest in 13% of them

Based on 147 comparisons across 5 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 IDR, but it was the cheapest in only 48% of the 145 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

OFX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 5% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Indonesia.

If it's a one-off transfer, go with Wise, since it's the cheapest right now.

Ways to send money from New Zealand to Indonesia

5 companies cover NZD/IDR transfers, between them you can send money via app, currency broker, online, multi-currency account, and global business account, and more.

Cheapest way to send NZD

Online money transfers

The gap between the cheapest and most expensive way to send money from New Zealand is among the widest in the world, and money transfer companies and apps are usually the cheapest.

Wise charges NZ$34.37 and -0.02% markup on a NZ$10,000 transfer.

This will get you 101,361,419 IDR and it will arrive in same day.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 28 of the 30 days it quoted.

Best support options

Currency brokers

For house purchase abroad, an inheritance or a pension transfer, a broker like OFX charges no fee and adds 0.5% margin, with a real person on the phone dealing with everything end to end.

Our analysis shows OFX was the cheapest broker in 33% of the transfers from NZ$10,000 it quoted.

Also, you can send a small NZD/IDR transfer first to get the feel of the process before sending the rest.

I suggest getting a few quotes from brokers and seeing who's the cheapest.

Living across two countries

Multi-currency accounts

If you live between two countries, income in one, mortgage or family in the other, a multi-currency account holds both currencies and converts when you choose.

Wise converts NZ$10,000 at -0.02% markup and holds the IDR until you spend it.

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

It’s also great for travelling to Indonesia and spending it there.

For business payments from NZ

Global accounts

Companies like Wise Business, OFX, or Revolut Business handle business payments, recurring and batch payments, invoicing, and more.

Great for paying suppliers, contractors or staff in Indonesia, or getting paid in IDR.

Ways to fund NZD and receive IDR in Indonesia

With Wise, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending NZ$10,000 gives your recipient 101,361,419 IDR.

Pay in NZD by bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

New Zealand bank payments still run in processing cycles, so allow time for the company to receive the payment before it can process the transfer to Indonesia.

The recipient in Indonesia can use bank deposit.

To send money directly to bank account or card, enter the recipient's bank details, account number and account-holder name.

What to consider when sending NZD to Indonesia

Here are a few things to know about money transfers from New Zealand to Indonesia.

Compare NZD/IDR transfer options

For a NZ$10,000 transfer to Indonesia, these are the current best options you have.

Cheapest

Wise is cheapest when funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 101,361,419 IDR, which is 0.18% more than the next best option.

Fastest

Revolut delivers 101,161,212.38 IDR in within minutes when you pay by bank transfer and the recipient uses bank deposit.

A NZ$1,000 report

New Zealand reporting entities must report international wire transfers of NZ$1,000 or more to the Financial Intelligence Unit.

It does not mean you need permission or cannot send more than NZ$1,000.

The New Zealand Police guidance on prescribed transactions explains the reporting threshold.

Keep evidence showing where the money came from, particularly for a property sale, inheritance or transfer between your own accounts.

Bank funding is not always instant

New Zealand bank payments run daily, but the transfer company still needs to receive and match your payment before sending IDR.

Debit-card funding may be confirmed sooner, although it can cost more.

Gifts are not taxed in New Zealand

New Zealand abolished gift duty, so there is no New Zealand gift tax simply because you send money to family in Indonesia.

Keep a record showing that it was a gift, loan or transfer of your own money because the recipient's tax position can differ.

Transfer protection from New Zealand

New Zealand's Depositor Compensation Scheme covers eligible deposits at licensed deposit takers.

It does not cover money after it has been sent to a non-bank transfer company.

The Reserve Bank explains the scheme's scope in a bit more detail.
