How to send money from Sweden to UAE

Pick a company

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

Key Currency was the cheapest on 26 of the 26 days it quoted kr80,000 transfers to UAE.

On a 80,000 SEK transfer, Key Currency delivers the most AED.

The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best SEK/AED 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 UAE, 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 it's less common).

Compare amounts

How much SEK are you sending to UAE?

How much SEK you send to UAE heavily affects the best ways and the cheapest options. Use the table below to check how the cheapest options change and how much more you'd get by comparing.

Our analysis shows Key Currency was the cheapest in 100% of the transfers from SEK 50,000 it quoted, and in 100% of all the transfers it quoted.

Exchange rateFeeRecipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send 80 000 kr, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what 80 000 kr 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 AED per SEK 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 AED on every transfer from Sweden.

Right now, Key Currency pays 29,411.65 AED on 80,000 SEK, which is 73.71 AED less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 29,600.21 AED.

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 UAE.

We've tracked 92 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 5 amounts over the past month.

  1. Key CurrencyAppeared in 26 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. Regency FXAppeared in 26 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

  3. TorFxAppeared in 40 comparisons

    Cheapest in 35% of them

Based on 92 comparisons across 5 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, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

Compare SEK to AED transfer options

Cheapest way to send money to United Arab Emirates

The cheapest option for an SEK 80,000 transfer is Key Currency. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 29,411.65 AED, which is 0.02% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to United Arab Emirates

With Revolut, a bank transfer deposit and bank deposit payout delivers 29,151.12 AED in same day.

Swish only works in Sweden

Swish moves money between participating Swedish accounts, it cannot send SEK to United Arab Emirates.

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

United Arab Emirates may have their own rules on receiving monetary gifts.
