How to send money from UK to Lebanon

Pick a company

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

TapTap Send was the cheapest on 1 of the 30 days it quoted £6,000 transfers to Lebanon.

On a 6,000 GBP transfer, TapTap Send delivers the most LBP.

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

Fund your transfer

You have 2 ways to pay, including bank transfer and debit card.

Paying from your bank is usually both cheapest and quickest, since most companies connect straight into your banking app via Open Banking.

Anywhere a debit card works, Apple Pay and Google Pay usually do too.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need to confirm your name, date of birth, address and a photo ID.

On a £6,000 transfer it's normally instant but can take a couple of hours.

GBP/LBP Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from UK to Lebanon?

The cheapest way to send GBP to LBP can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's TapTap Send), across 30 days of comparisons for 6,000 GBP transfers to Lebanon.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send £6,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what £6,000 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 LBP per GBP 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 LBP on every transfer from UK.

Right now, TapTap Send pays 7,818 LBP on 6,000 GBP, which is 715,619,618.72 LBP less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 718,492,449.38 LBP.

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 Lebanon.

We've tracked 196 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 7 amounts over the past month.

Regency FXAppeared in 101 comparisons
Cheapest every time
TapTap SendAppeared in 195 comparisons
Cheapest in 8% of them

Based on 196 comparisons across 7 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 TapTap Send is the cheapest and gets you the most LBP, but it was the cheapest in only 8% of the 195 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

Regency FX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 100% of its comparisons, so if you send money to Lebanon regularly, it's worth comparing it with TapTap Send before each transfer.

If it's a one-off transfer, go with TapTap Send, since it's the cheapest right now.

Ways to send money from the UK to Lebanon

There are many ways to send money to Lebanon from the UK, including broker and app, and more.

For small & frequent transfers

Money transfer apps

If you send small amounts back home to Lebanon, say weekly or monthly, an app like TapTap Send is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.

It charges £0 in fees, has 200% markup, lets you save recipient details, and LBP will arrive in minutes.

Over the past month, TapTap Send was the cheapest app on 100% of the days it appeared for £6,000 transfers.

For large transfers

Brokers

Currency brokers like Regency FX are the best for £10,000+ transfers (things like house deposits, education fees, relocation, etc.).

You get a dedicated account manager to handle your transfer to Lebanon, and 24/7 support.

Regency FX charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 0.27% markup on top of the current GBP/LBP rate.

The markup gets better the more GBP you send, so we suggest .

Our analysis shows Regency FX was the cheapest broker in 100% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted.

For business transfers

Global accounts

Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.

For suppliers, freelancers, salaries, or invoices in Lebanon, companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle batch and recurring payments a consumer app simply can’t.

Ways to fund GBP and receive LBP in Lebanon

Pay-in and pay-out methods will affect how much GBP you deposit and how much LBP your recipient gets. Use the table below to see how different options change how much you pay and what they get.

The overall best and cheapest way to send £6,000 to Lebanon is via TapTap Send, using a debit card to deposit GBP and cash pickup to receive LBP.

Depositing GBP

You have 2 pay-in options for transfers to Lebanon, including bank transfer and debit card.

The cheapest pay-in option is bank transfer.

The fastest option in the UK is almost always bank transfer, since most companies use Open Banking and Faster Payments System (FPS).

The most expensive deposit option is debit card.

Be careful with credit card deposits, since your bank often treats it as a cash advance and will charge interest.

Receiving money in Lebanon

Money can reach Lebanon by bank deposit, cash pickup, and mobile wallet, and each delivery method comes with its own fees.

The cheapest way to receive money in Lebanon is with bank deposit on average.

Receiving cash

Consider this when sending GBP to Lebanon

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Lebanon such as limits, taxes, and safety.

Compare GBP/LBP transfer options

Right now, these are the best money transfer options for a £6,000 transfer to Lebanon:

Cheapest way to send money to Lebanon

The cheapest way is to use TapTap Send, pay in with a debit card and withdraw via cash pickup. You will get L£7,818, which is -9128772.38% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Lebanon

The fastest way is to use TapTap Send via debit card deposit and cash pickup for pay out. You get L£7,818 and it will arrive in minutes.

UK transfer limits

There is no legal limit and no tax on sending your own money abroad.

Main hard limits come from your bank or money transfer company, often around £10,000 to £25,000 online (which you can usually increase in the app).

Also, the "£10,000 declaration" only applies to physically carrying cash through the border, not online transfers.

And on bigger GBP/LBP transfers (roughly £10,000 up) expect a source-of-funds check, such as a payslip or a statement.

These are anti-money-laundering checks, and they can hold your transfer up, so have the documents ready.

The transfer costs involved

Your cost is the fee plus the exchange-rate margin.

For example, sending £6,000 with TapTap Send will get you 7,818 LBP, that’s including £0 fee and 200% in exchange rate markup.

A bank like on the other hand, will get you L£0, that’s £ in fees but % in FX fees.

Taxes on money transfers

There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Lebanon.

And, regular gifts out of your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, no cap and no seven-year wait.

Staying safe when sending abroad

Only ever use a provider authorised by the FCA, which you can check on the FCA register in under a minute.

The rules in place for any scams cover domestic pound transfers only, on a transfer abroad you're less protected.

Always confirm who you're really sending to before you send, because there's little recourse after.
