🇬🇧🇧🇩 About Sending Money to Bangladesh

The United Kingdom is one of Bangladesh’s largest remittance sources, anchored by a long-established British Bangladeshi community with deep roots in specific UK cities.

Did you know?

The UK was the second-largest source of remittances to Bangladesh in FY2025-26, contributing $4.69 billion in the first 11 months of the fiscal year.

The UK is home to one of the world’s largest Bangladeshi diaspora communities — over 600,000 people, concentrated in Tower Hamlets (London), Birmingham, and Bradford, with roots tracing to Sylheti labour migration from the 1960s-80s.

bKash delivery is unusually well-covered from the UK: all 12 providers compared here confirm Bank Deposit, and 8 of the 12 also confirm direct bKash delivery for UK senders — including Revolut, whose UK app supports bKash even though its US app does not.

Remit Architect compares providers using a standardized £100 GBP transfer benchmark from a UK bank account to a recipient account in Bangladesh. Rates, fees, and availability change frequently and are reviewed on a recurring cycle; figures shown may not reflect real-time pricing — always confirm the current rate and fee directly on the provider’s site before sending.

bKash is Bangladesh’s largest mobile financial service, used by tens of millions of people to receive, hold, and spend money directly from a mobile phone. Most providers compared above, when sending from the UK, can deliver funds directly to a bKash wallet.
Based on the verified data above: Western Union, Sendwave, WorldRemit, Remitly, Taptap Send, Xoom, MoneyGram, and Revolut can deliver to bKash from the UK. Wise, Paysend, LemFi, and Ria Money Transfer currently deliver to bank accounts (or card, for Paysend, or cash pickup, for Ria) only.

Cost depends on the provider, payment method, and any active promotion — see the Fee Type column in the comparison table above for each provider’s current structure.

Country-Specific FAQ

Provider availability and payout methods are verified separately for each sending country. The UK corridor has broader bKash coverage than the US corridor for some providers — Revolut, for example, offers bKash delivery to UK senders but only Bank Deposit to US senders, reflecting real differences in each provider’s product build-out by market, not an error in either page.
