Transfer money to Australia

Post by OZTT »

Hello All,

I need to transfer funds to my Australia bank account to pay for a bill. Legit bill. I need to pay for partner visa fee of around $9k
Has anyone here sent money back home OZ, UK or USA from a Cambodian Bank account? Is it possible?

Cheers
TT

It's certainly possible but for SWIFT payments expect fees this end of around USD 25 to 30, and your bank in Australia will probably take a similar chunk.

ACLEDA charges 0,1% for a SWIFT payment with a minimum of 10$. The fee on the Cambodian side would be 10$ if the OP transferred 9,000 USD to OZ using ACLEDA.

I see they changed the conditions. Min fee is now 5$ but the added a 'processing fee'.
