How to send money from Sweden to Sri Lanka

Pick a company

For a one-off transfer to Sri Lanka, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is TapTap Send.

On a 80,000 SEK transfer, TapTap Send delivers the most LKR.

The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best SEK/LKR 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 Sri Lanka, 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 Sri Lanka

6 companies send money from Sweden to Sri Lanka, 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 Sri Lanka, an online service like Wise is usually the simplest place to start.

Wise charges kr476.64 to send 80,000 SEK, leaving your recipient with 2,640,310.74 after a 0.16% markup on SEK/LKR exchange rate.

Regular SEK transfers

Money transfer apps

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

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

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

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 LKR.

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

Wise converts SEK 80,000 with a 0.16% exchange-rate markup and holds the LKR in your account.

Paying from business accounts

Global accounts

If your business receives and sends money in Sri Lanka, a global account keeps the LKR 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 Sri Lanka

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

Compare SEK to LKR transfer options

Cheapest way to send money to Sri Lanka

The cheapest option for LKR 2,657,600 is TapTap Send. Pay by debit card and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 2,657,600 LKR, which is 0.17% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Sri Lanka

With Revolut, a bank transfer deposit and bank deposit payout delivers 2,624,790.34 LKR in within minutes.

Swish only works in Sweden

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

You may still use a Swedish bank transfer to pay for the transfer online, but beyond that, the company will move SEK to Sri Lanka 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.

Sri Lanka may have their own rules on receiving monetary gifts.
