Send money to Raast-linked accounts from the UAE
Compare the complete UAE transfer before choosing delivery to Raast-linked accounts. The sending channel, recipient account and local payment network perform different steps; this guide explains what to confirm for each.
Raast-linked accounts: receiving details
Ask the recipient for the Pakistan account name and IBAN requested by the sending service. If the selected route explicitly supports a Raast ID, confirm the current linked account before entering that ID.
Compare the same transfer
Use the same total AED budget, recipient and receiving method. Check the PKR amount, all disclosed charges and the end-to-end delivery estimate before paying.
Raast-linked accounts receiving route
SBP’s P2P guidance describes Raast as a domestic Pakistan payment system. A recipient can receive local payments through an account’s IBAN or a registered Raast ID linked to that account.
For a UAE remittance, first select the international sending service and Pakistan receiving account. Supply the account details that service asks for. A Raast ID alone does not establish that a UAE sending service supports cross-border delivery to it.
Prepare the payment
Confirm the beneficiary
Ask the recipient for the Pakistan account name and IBAN requested by the sending service. If the selected route explicitly supports a Raast ID, confirm the current linked account before entering that ID.
Choose the receiving method
Select Pakistan and the actual account or receiving method in the sending service. Review the recipient name before confirming.
Check total cost and delivery
Compare AED paid against PKR delivered, including separately disclosed charges. Keep the receipt and transfer reference until the recipient confirms credit.
