Before we explain how to send money from India to USA, you need to know about remittance. Remittance is another term for sending money to someone either through a Bank, a money changer or through platforms like BookMyForex.
Remittance is of Two Types:
Outward Remittance: When You Send Money from India to a Foreign Country
Inward Remittance: When You Send Money to India from a Foreign Country
Ways of Sending Money to USA from India:
You have two methods to transfer money:
1: Wire Transfer from India to USA (Swift Transfers)
2: Demand Drafts (money orders)
What is a Wire Transfer?
Wire transfer or online wire transfer from India to USA is the easiest and best way to transfer money. Though online wire transfers are done by banks, it is cheaper to use online platforms like BookMyForex as Banks in India charge anywhere from Rs. 500 to Rs. 1000 to process it. Moreover, most foreign banks that receive the money also charge a foreign correspondent fee ranging from USD 10 to USD 40. When you send Dollar through a Wire Transfer to USA, BookMyForex does not charge anything.
What is a Foreign Currency Demand Draft?
Demand drafts are physical paper drafts issued in specific foreign currencies. Sending money from India to USA through this method is another convenient option. Nevertheless, it is essential to keep in mind that transferring money by demand draft to the United States is a much more time-consuming process. In contrast, wire transfers take only 12 to 48 business hours.
