Things to know before sending SAR to Spain

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

Best options to send SAR to Spain

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 Spain. Your recipient gets 11,672.4 EUR, which is 0.02% more than the next option.

Fastest:

Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. It delivers 11,670.06 EUR 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 it 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.
