How often do you send money to Chile? Whether you need such services all the time or just once in a while, there are fees that every money transfer service will charge you.
Chances are that you know about the upfront charges in advance but there could be other way in which the service provider will monetize your transaction. If you choose to send money to Chile via a bank wire, there will be solid taxes that you have to pay.
On the other hand, some so-called free money transfer services have no upfront fees but the currency will be exchanged using less than favorable conversion rates. For example, if you’re sending 1,000 dollars from the US to Chile via Money Move IT (see Table 1), you will pay over 230 dollars in charges, as well as a 5-dollar upfront tax. Check out the table below if you want to find the cheapest way to send money to Chile.
Wondering how to avoid hidden fees and unpleasant charge surprises when you send money to the Philippines, Brazil, Australia, Kenya, Mexico, Macedonia, Poland, Egypt, Romania, Indonesia, India, Bangladesh, Ukraine, Bolivia, Serbia, Pakistan, Colombia and Morocco? Our short money transfer guides with tables feature everything you need to know when you send money abroad.

Do the charts you provide include Chilean Bank deposit fees? These fees can be quite steep. Is there any way to get around them like possibly depositing into an international account such as Payoneer? UpVote 0 Upvotes -
I have the same question, hope someone knows the answer. UpVote 0 Upvotes

Hi! I was just looking for this and I thought "yes, just what I needed!", however, trying to send euros from Europe to Chile, I go to the cheapest option, TransferWise, and it doesn't offer the convertion to chilean pesos... How did you do to create this table without the currency available? Thanks in advance for your reply! UpVote 2 Upvotes -
Chile is not yet supported by TransferWise. You can send them a "wish" to have this currency though: https://transferwise.com/wishes UpVote 0 Upvotes
