Send money to State Bank of India (SBI) from the UAE
Sending money from Dubai or elsewhere in the UAE to State Bank of India (SBI) starts with the receiving account. Use the bank’s instructions below to prepare the beneficiary, then compare the complete transfer price for your AED amount.
State Bank of India (SBI): receiving details
Confirm the account holder’s exact name, current State Bank of India (SBI) account number and branch IFSC for a local INR deposit. For a foreign-currency wire, obtain the bank’s SWIFT and correspondent instructions for the chosen currency.
Compare the same transfer
Use the same total AED budget, recipient and receiving method. Check the INR amount, all disclosed charges and the end-to-end delivery estimate before paying.
State Bank of India (SBI) receiving route
SBI directs senders to obtain the receiving branch’s SWIFT instructions. When that branch has no SWIFT code, its guidance calls for a linked or nearby SBI branch code.
Ask the SBI recipient for branch-confirmed wire instructions. Keep the beneficiary account and branch IFSC separate from any intermediary-bank details; a single head-office code should not replace branch instructions.
