How to send money from India to Zambia

An agent like Western Union, MoneyGram, or Ria Money Transfer
Wise (USD/USD or EUR/EUR transfers)
Send cash to Zambia from India
Agents are physical stores where you hand in INR as cash and the receiver picks it up from the store in Zambia.
Western Union Agent
We suggest using Western Union agent as it's reputable, fast, and is partnered with multiple banks in India.
The fees and rates will vary from day to day and based on your transfer amount, but it's still much cheaper than using your bank directly.
