How to send money from Sweden to Guatemala

Pick a company

For a one-off transfer to Guatemala, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Regency FX.

On a 80,000 SEK transfer, Regency FX delivers the most GTQ.

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

Fund your transfer

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

A transfer from your Swedish bank is usually the easiest way to fund the transfer.

Verify and send

Before you can send money to Guatemala, you'll need to verify your account.

Most companies do it with BankID.

If you can't get BankID yet, some companies will take a passport instead (but its less common).

Ways to send money from Sweden to Guatemala

6 companies send money from Sweden to Guatemala, mostly through app, online, broker, multi-currency account, global account, and in person, and a few more ways.

Medium-sized transfers

Online transfers

For a one-off transfer to Guatemala, an online service like Xe is usually the simplest place to start.

Xe charges kr0 to send 80,000 SEK, leaving your recipient with 60,720 after a 1.48% markup on SEK/GTQ exchange rate.

Regular SEK transfers

Money transfer apps

For smaller regular transfers, apps are the most convenient and easiest way to send money to Guatemala.

TapTap Send charges kr0 on a 80,000 SEK transfer and money will arrive in minutes.

You recipient can withdraw via bank deposit, cash pickup, and mobile money.

In many cases you will need a BankID to verify your account, but a few will do with a passport or drivers licence.

Spending and travelling

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account makes sense if you regularly need GTQ.

You can convert your kronor in advance and use the balance when needed without extra fees.

Revolut converts SEK 80,000 with a 0.79% exchange-rate markup and holds the GTQ in your account.

Paying from business accounts

Global accounts

If your business receives and sends money in Guatemala, a global account keeps the GTQ in one place.

You can pay invoices from the balance and convert when needed.

WorldFirst and Airwallex are good options to try.

Consider this before sending SEK to Guatemala

Swedish banks are safe but often expensive for foreign payments. Compare money transfer companies available to get the most of GTQ from Sweden.

Compare SEK to GTQ transfer options

Cheapest way to send money to Guatemala

The cheapest option for GTQ 61,456.02 is Regency FX. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 61,456.02 GTQ, which is 1.07% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Guatemala

With TapTap Send, a debit card deposit and cash pickup payout delivers 60,800 GTQ in minutes.

Swish only works in Sweden

Swish moves money between participating Swedish accounts, it cannot send SEK to Guatemala.

You may still use a Swedish bank transfer to pay for the transfer online, but beyond that, the company will move SEK to Guatemala over local rails or SWIFT.

Avoid delays

A bank can ask for the purpose and source of a large or unusual payment.

Property sales, inheritances and transfers between your own accounts are easier to clear when the documents match the description you gave the bank.

Tell your bank before a time-sensitive payment and keep the sale contract, estate document or account statement ready.

And do not split one large payment into many small ones, since it can trigger more questions.

Sweden does not charge gift tax

Sweden has no gift or inheritance tax, so sending a cash gift does not create a Swedish gift-tax return.

Guatemala may have their own rules on receiving monetary gifts.
