both RBC and CIBS are good. it will cost you around 30$ to wire less then 10k. safe and legal, and in 4 days you will get it in pak

Per my calculations, if you transfer more than 15000 US$ then the bank charges are covered with somewhat lesser banks' exchange rate. I mean you'd get a rate as of hard currancy.

Mr. Well Wisher,

I am sure you or anybody else was not born with all the information already in his head. You have to learn, study, ask people experience to get different kinds of knowledge or information and this exactly what he is doing. Transferring of money is a very common question which most overseas Pakistanis have and are hesitant to use proper legal channels because of lack of information. It is good if someone is asking this question as the answers on a website like this benfits many other silent readers as well.
