Send Money to Bangladesh from Germany (2026)
Updated 10 April 2026
Sending Money from Germany to Bangladesh
Germany is home to a growing Bangladeshi community, particularly in Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Munich. Germany uses the euro, and the EUR to BDT corridor is fully supported by major international money transfer services. German senders benefit from free SEPA bank transfers for funding, which reduces the overall cost significantly compared to card-funded transfers.

SEPA Transfer: Why It Saves You Money
Germany's banking system uses SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) for transfers within Europe. When you fund a Wise or Remitly transfer via SEPA bank transfer instead of debit card, the fee is often zero or very low. This makes Germany one of the more cost-efficient sending countries for Bangladesh transfers. Most German banks support SEPA transfers instantly or within one business day.
EUR to BDT Rate from Germany
The EUR/BDT exchange rate is consistent across the eurozone. As of April 2026:
- ✓Mid-market rate: approximately 115–125 BDT per euro
- ✓Wise: mid-market rate (0% markup), plus ~0.41–0.7% fee for SEPA transfers
- ✓TapTap Send: approximately 1–1.5% below mid-market, zero fee
- ✓Remitly: approximately 1–2% below mid-market, moderate fee
- ✓German bank wire: approximately 3–5% below mid-market, plus €15–25 SWIFT fee
bKash Delivery from Germany
All major providers support bKash delivery from Germany. Wise, TapTap Send, Remitly, and WorldRemit let you enter the recipient's bKash phone number and deliver within minutes to hours. This is much faster than bank transfer and requires no bank account from the recipient.
Bangladesh 2.5% Government Incentive
The Bangladesh government's 2.5% cash incentive applies to all formal remittances from Germany. Recipients automatically receive 2.5% extra in BDT. For a €500 transfer, this adds approximately 1,450 BDT to what your recipient receives — a significant bonus that no informal channel provides.
