How to handle money from overseas

When you receive money from an overseas bank account, there are two ways you can receive this money:

Electronic transfers

Electronic transfers give you the greatest levels of security and speed. We recommend that overseas money is sent to you this way.


Drafts and cheques

Cheques and drafts from overseas accounts are less secure. They can also be relatively expensive. If you do need to use these services, we can clear the payments on your behalf.
