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 LKR 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 LKR on every transfer from Saudi Arabia.
Right now, Regency FX pays 4,427,975.7 LKR on 50,000 SAR, which is 11,987.9 LKR less than the mid-market amount.
Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 4,485,000.41 LKR.
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.
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 30 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 1 amounts over the past month.

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

Cheapest
Here are a few things to consider when making money transfers from Saudi Arabia to Sri Lanka.
I would suggest starting with these companies unless you have special needs (like specific funding or receiving options):
Cheapest:
Regency FX, paid by bank transfer with bank deposit in Sri Lanka. Your recipient gets 4,427,975.7 LKR, which is 0% more than the next option.
Fastest:
Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. It delivers 4,427,975.7 LKR in minutes - 24 hours.
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 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.
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.
