Can I Transfer Money from UAE to Philippines?
Any bank, exchange house, or a third-party money transfer company will allow you to send money to Philippines from the UAE. Some reputed exchanges are Al Ansari, GCC, Orient Exchange, Al Rostamani, and Lulu Financial. You need to deposit cash or bank cheques in-person at their branches to send money abroad. If you are interested in online transfers, Lulu Financial and Al Ansari are some exchanges that have an app as well.
Online transfers will be possible through any of the reputed banks in the UAE like the First Abu Dhabi Bank, and Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank. The money will be transferred in Dirhams (AED), and the recipient will receive equivalent amount in Philippine Peso (PHP). The bank will typically charge a transfer and conversion fee.
Apart from them, various money transfer service providers like Western Union and MoneyGram are also great options. Exchange rates between the UAE and Philippines might differ across providers, and so will fees and other charges. Remember to compare them before choosing the most cost-effective option.
