Sending money from Poland to Nepal? Nepal is outside the SEPA area — cash collection, mobile wallet payouts and bank account transfers are available. Cost and delivery time depend on the amount, method and provider — confirm them with the provider before sending.

From an account at a Polish bank (SWIFT) — fee according to the fee schedule
A SWIFT transfer goes to a bank account, not for cash collection, and usually takes 1–3 days. Fees come from bank fee schedules; the exchange rate is usually based on the bank’s rate table, including a spread. This is an actual, disclosed price — unlike cash transfer services, which show the cost only for a specific transaction.
| Bank | SWIFT transfer fee | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Bank Millennium | 0,5% min. 20 zł, max. 125 zł (SWIFT); SEPA EUR 0 zł online | Bank Millennium fee schedule |
| Credit Agricole | 0,25% min. 60 zł, max. 300 zł (SWIFT); SEPA EUR 0 zł online | Credit Agricole fee schedule |

Fintechs with transparent pricing — published pricing model
These fintechs disclose their pricing model in advance (exchange rate + fee), so the cost can be calculated before sending — unlike Western Union, MoneyGram or Remitly, which show the full cost only for a specific transaction. The values shown are source-based pricing models, not per-transfer amounts, which depend on the amount and currency.
| Provider | Cost model | Source |

| Wise | interbank rate, 0% markup | Wise fee schedule / calculator |
| Paysera | 7 EUR (<10 000 EUR); 10 EUR (≥10 000 EUR) | Paysera fee schedule |

How much does a transfer to Nepal cost — what makes up the total cost?
The total cost consists of the provider’s fee and the FX spread (the difference between the interbank rate and the provider’s rate). Compare both — a low fee combined with a worse rate may cost more. See also: international transfer fees, interbank rate.
Delivery time — what does it depend on?
Cash collection and mobile money usually take minutes. An account transfer takes from minutes to 1–2 business days; a traditional bank SWIFT transfer takes 1–3 days.
Security — are funds protected during the transfer?
Funds in transit are not covered by a deposit guarantee — neither the Polish BFG nor a foreign DGS. Payment institutions use safeguarding (segregation of funds), which is different from a deposit guarantee. See also: bank vs EMI.
