      How to send money to Tanzania

      How To Step Icon
      Step 1
      Carry out basic research before you register
      Carry out basic research before you register
      Several prominent money transfer companies let you send money to Tanzania. If you hope to select the best of the lot, carrying out some basic research is important.
      Sign up as an individual or a business only after you find a company that meets your requirements.
      You will need to provide your contact information. Most companies also require details from a valid government-issued identity document.
      How To Step Icon
      Step 2
      Examine exchange rates before you set up a transfer
      Examine exchange rates before you set up a transfer
      Take a look at historical TZS exchange rates from the last month or so. If you notice any significant fluctuations, determine if it is a good time to send money to Tanzania.
      If you wish to set up a transfer, get a rate quote by visiting your service provider's website. This might require that you enter the desired transfer amount.
      You may lock the rate on offer by accepting the quote.
      You will then need to provide the recipient's Tanzanian bank account details.

      Step 3
      The movement of funds
      The movement of funds
      Your service provider functions as a mediator in the movement of funds when you transfer money to Tanzania.
      The first step requires that you send the money to the company you select, in your home currency. The company then transfers the money in TZD to the recipient's bank account. You get an indication of the turnaround time in advance.
      Most companies provide timely updates via email or text messages.
