Before you send money to Malaysia
- Compare the provider’s exchange rate with the reference rate shown here.
- Add the fee to the cost. A better rate can still cost more overall.
- Use only licensed banks and exchange houses, and keep the transfer receipt.
- Check the delivery time and payout method: bank credit, cash pick-up or mobile wallet.
Malaysian Ringgit and Kuwait: what to know
The Malaysian ringgit is used for travel, study and business. When paying by card in Malaysia, choose to be charged in ringgit rather than KWD to avoid a weak conversion rate.
If you are travelling to Malaysia or paying a business there, compare your card issuer's foreign-currency fee with the cash-exchange quote for Malaysian ringgit. At a shop or ATM, check the amount in Malaysian ringgit before accepting an optional conversion to KWD; the merchant or ATM conversion may use a less favourable rate.
For a transfer from Kuwait to Malaysia, compare the final amount paid out in Malaysian ringgit after the exchange margin and any transfer or collection fee. Check the expected arrival time, confirm the recipient's details with them before submitting, and keep the receipt until the payout is complete.
