Frequently Asked Questions
Can Skrill send AED to Indian Rupees?
Skrill offers international transfers including to India, but it is primarily an e-wallet rather than a dedicated remittance service. The AED to INR rate and fees on Skrill should be compared directly at skrill.com. For the India corridor specifically, purpose-built remittance apps like Wise (mid-market rate + transparent fee), Remitly, and InstaReM are frequently more cost-effective for UAE residents sending to Indian bank accounts.
How does Skrill compare to Wise for AED to INR?
Wise uses the mid-market exchange rate and charges a transparent percentage fee (typically 0.5–1% for AED to INR). Skrill's rate includes a margin above the mid-market rate and charges additional fees. For direct bank-to-bank transfers from UAE to India, Wise is consistently more rate-transparent. The actual difference depends on the amount — always get a live quote from both and compare the total INR your family receives.
What are the SWIFT codes for receiving INR from Skrill in India?
For INR bank transfers to India from any provider, the SWIFT codes for major Indian banks are: SBI — SBININBB; HDFC — HDFCINBB; ICICI — ICICINBB; Axis Bank — AXISINBB; Punjab National Bank — PUNBINBB. Verify the exact SWIFT code with your bank branch as sub-codes may vary. Always provide the correct IFSC code along with the account number for India transfers.
