Send money to Nepal from Canada
Send money to your loved ones in Kathmandu, Pokhara, Biratnagar, Lalitpur, and across Nepal with live CAD to NPR rates, bank deposit, cash pickup, and mobile wallet delivery.
How to send money from Canada to Nepal
Submit a government-issued ID to complete this one-time FINTRAC requirement, which confirms who you are and determines your sending limit, including how much you can transfer to Nepal per transaction.
Select how your recipient in Nepal receives the money — bank deposit, cash pickup through EsewaRemit, or mobile wallet via eSewa or MORU — then provide the required details, which for a bank deposit means the recipient's account number, bank name, and full legal name as it appears on the account.
Type in the CAD amount you want to send, and the live CAD to NPR exchange rate along with the exact Nepalese rupees your recipient will receive appears on screen before you go any further — no estimates, no adjustments afterward.
Fund your transfer via Interac e-Transfer, EFT, debit card, or bill payment, with transfers above $500 CAD via e-Transfer, EFT, or bill payment carrying no service fee at all.
One screen shows the NPR amount, the exchange rate, and the fee — once you confirm, the amount is final and the transfer moves immediately.
Watch your money move from Canada to a bank account at Nabil Bank, NIC Asia Bank, Global IME Bank, Himalayan Bank, or any major institution your family uses in Nepal — or to their eSewa or MORU wallet — with live updates at every stage.
Cheapest way to send money to Nepal
For transfers under $500 CAD on those same methods, a flat $2.99 fee covers the transaction. Debit card pricing works differently: the fee rises alongside the transfer size rather than sitting flat, which means the cost gap between debit and e-Transfer widens the more rupees you're trying to move to Nepal.

Best way to send money to Nepal from Canada
Nepal's remittance receiving network covers bank accounts, cash pickup locations, and mobile wallets — giving your family in Kathmandu, Pokhara, or a smaller district the flexibility to access funds in whatever way fits their situation best.
Send directly to a Nepalese bank account using the recipient's account number and bank name — Nepal does not use IBAN, so the account number is the correct identifier. Supported banks include Nabil Bank, NIC Asia Bank, Global IME Bank, Himalayan Bank, Nepal Investment Bank, NMB Bank, Sanima Bank, and Standard Chartered Bank, among others across the country.
Recipients across Nepal can collect funds in person through EsewaRemit partner locations by presenting a valid Nepalese citizenship card and the transfer reference number, with no bank account needed on their end — especially useful in districts where bank branches are harder to reach.
Available payment methods & speed
Here's how fast each option funds your transfer, from quickest to slowest.
Your Visa or Mastercard debit processes the payment immediately, so the transfer starts the moment you confirm — the right choice when your family in Kathmandu or Pokhara needs money the same day.
Send the e-Transfer through your banking app the same way you would to any contact, and once it arrives on our end, it's applied to your transfer and dispatched toward Nepal within minutes.
Pay through your bank's online portal or at a branch — a one-business-day method that works well for planned transfers to Nepal where keeping costs at zero matters more than same-day departure.
Link your Canadian bank account and let the funds pull automatically, which makes EFT the most low-maintenance method for anyone transferring to Nepal on a regular monthly or bi-monthly schedule.
Enter your card details via the app or web and the payment clears as a card transaction rather than a bank pull, locking in funds on the spot so the transfer starts without waiting on your bank's processing cycle.
Top up your CAD balance ahead of time and every future transfer to Nepal fires the moment you confirm — no funding lag, no bank dependency, and no processing queue between you and the send.
Frictionless transfers
Best rate to send money to Nepal
Transfer services with tighter margins (around 0.3-0.5%) can deliver significantly more NPR on the same transfer amount. Setting rate alerts can also help you send when the CAD strengthens — especially before high-remittance periods like Dashain and Tihar.
The speed of your transfer to Nepal depends on two factors:
- Our service
- Your choice of Payment Method

Why RemitBee is the best app to send money to Nepal
From Toronto to Kathmandu, Calgary to Pokhara — RemitBee is built for Nepali Canadians who want every rupee they send to land whole, on time, and at a rate that actually reflects what the market is offering.
Live rates that refresh in real time, carrying a 0.3 to 0.5% margin instead of the 3 to 4% spread banks fold into wire conversions — your family receives more Nepalese rupees on every transfer, and the advantage compounds the more you send.
Transfer above $500 CAD via Interac e-Transfer, EFT, or bill payment and the service fee is zero — only the rate margin applies, and the rest of your CAD converts to NPR without any additional deduction.
Send to accounts at Nabil Bank, NIC Asia Bank, Global IME Bank, Himalayan Bank, and 25+ other major Nepalese banks, or deliver directly to eSewa and MORU wallets, or cash pickup through EsewaRemit — reaching recipients across Nepal regardless of whether they use a bank, a wallet, or neither.
One confirmation screen locks the exact NPR amount, the CAD to NPR rate, and the fee before the transfer moves, so the figure your family in Kathmandu or Pokhara expects is the figure that credits their account or wallet.
Live status updates accompany every transfer from CAD debit through to NPR credit — sent, in transit, arrived in Nepal, credited to the account or wallet — so both you and your family can see exactly where the money stands at any point.
