How to send money from Saudi Arabia to Mauritius

Pick a company

For a one-off SAR transfer to Mauritius, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Key Currency.

Key Currency was the cheapest on 29 of the 30 days it quoted SAR50,000 transfers to Mauritius.

On a 50,000 SAR transfer, Key Currency delivers the most MUR.

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

Fund your transfer

You have 1 methods to fund your transfer: bank transfer.

Some other transfer services may accept mada-funded payments, but double check when signing up.

Verify and send

When registering with a new company, you will need to verify your account.

You'll need your Iqama to register and to send.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send SAR 50,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what SAR 50,000 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 MUR per SAR 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 MUR on every transfer from Saudi Arabia.

Right now, Key Currency pays 632,282.28 MUR on 50,000 SAR, which is 1,584.67 MUR less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 642,614.99 MUR.

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 Mauritius.

We've tracked 30 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 1 amounts over the past month.

  1. Key CurrencyAppeared in 30 comparisons

    Cheapest in 97% of them

  2. Regency FXAppeared in 30 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

  3. Currencies DirectAppeared in 30 comparisons

    Cheapest in 3% of them

Based on 30 comparisons across 1 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 Key Currency is the cheapest and gets you the most MUR, and it was also the cheapest in 97% of the 30 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

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

Regency FX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 0% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Mauritius.

Ways to send money from Saudi Arabia to Mauritius

3 companies send money from Saudi Arabia to Mauritius, using broker and multi-currency account and other options.

Very large transfers

Currency brokers

A currency broker can help with timing the exchange rate and paperwork on a large transfer to Mauritius from Saudi Arabia.

Key Currency charges an exchange-rate markup of around 0.25% with no fees and gives you someone to contact throughout the transfer.

Our analysis shows Key Currency was the cheapest broker in 97% of all the transfers it quoted.

You will need your Iqama, salary certificate and source-of-funds documents beforehand.

Paying suppliers and contractors

Global accounts

Global accounts help Saudi businesses make regular payments to suppliers and contractors in Mauritius.

VertoFX and Payoneer can manage foreign-currency payments, invoices, batch payments, and more.

Things to know before sending SAR to Mauritius

Here are a few things to consider when making money transfers from Saudi Arabia to Mauritius.

Best options to send SAR to Mauritius

I would suggest starting with these companies unless you have special needs (like specific funding or receiving options):

Cheapest:

Key Currency, paid by bank transfer with bank deposit in Mauritius. Your recipient gets 632,282.28 MUR, which is 0.02% more than the next option.

Fastest:

Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. It delivers 632,155.51 MUR in minutes - 24 hours.

Transfer limits in Saudi Arabia

SAMA's rules for licensed money-transfer centres link an individual customer's limit to documented monthly income.

The rule caps transfers at the monthly salary or SAR 50,000 per month, whichever is lower, with an annual limit of SAR 500,000 where income is proved.

That does not mean every money transfer app will let you send the full amount as they can set their own limits.

SARIE and mada card are deposit methods

SARIE and mada card can be used inside Saudi Arabia only.

A wallet or transfer company may use them to collect your payment, but a licensed cross-border service still handles the transfer internally using local rails or internal network of bank accounts.

Use a SAMA-licensed service

Only use a bank, wallet, exchange business or remittance centre licensed by the Saudi Central Bank.

Do not hand money to an informal dealer because their rate looks better.

Check the recipient details before paying and keep the receipt.

If the company does not resolve a held or failed transfer, raise the complaint through SAMA Cares.

How we analyse the market

We track 3 companies sending SAR to Mauritius, with rates refreshed in real time on live comparisons.

The riyal is fixed to the dollar, so we compare on what lands in MUR, along with the fee and the ways to pay and collect.

In the past 30 days alone, we analysed 30 comparisons across 1 amounts.

This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for SAR/MUR 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 goes through our review first.
