How to send dollars to Europe in 3 steps
Short answer
To send dollars to Europe, choose the destination, enter the recipient’s full legal name, IBAN, and BIC or SWIFT code, review the euro amount and live rate, then confirm. The payout travels through SEPA and typically arrives the same day or next business day, depending on the receiving bank.
For a SEPA payout, collect the full name, IBAN, and BIC or SWIFT code.
What you need
Your euro payout reaches the recipient through SEPA, Europe’s bank-transfer network. Ask for the recipient’s full legal name, complete IBAN, and BIC or SWIFT code. The IBAN identifies the account and the BIC or SWIFT code identifies the bank; add an address only when the route asks for it. Most payouts arrive the same day or next business day, depending on the receiving bank and cutoff time.
- Full legal name
- Complete IBAN
- BIC or SWIFT code
- Address only if requested
1. Add the recipient
Choose the European destination and enter the full name, complete IBAN, and BIC or SWIFT code. Preserve the country prefix and any leading zeros, and provide an address only when prompted.
2. Enter dollars and check EUR
Enter the dollars you want to send. Review the EUR amount, live rate, transaction cost, and expected delivery before continuing.
3. Confirm and track
Check the recipient and IBAN once more, then confirm. Save the transfer reference until the recipient verifies that the euros arrived.
