Everything about sending money to Turkey

Before your first transfer, here's what's worth knowing so the money arrives fast and without a hitch.

The euro to Turkish lira exchange rate

You send in euros and the recipient gets Turkish lira (TRY). With Fonmoney you see the EUR/TRY rate and the exact amount that will arrive before you confirm the payment. No hidden margin in the rate, no costs that appear at the end: what you see on screen is what arrives.

The IBAN — the key detail

To transfer money to Turkey you need the recipient's IBAN. Turkish IBANs start with "TR" and have 26 characters. The recipient finds it in their banking app, on a statement or at their branch. With the full name and IBAN, the money goes straight into the account — nothing to collect at a counter.

Turkish banks that receive your transfer

Fonmoney works with all major banks in Turkey. The recipient can hold an account at any of the main ones:

Ziraat Bankası Türkiye İş Bankası Garanti BBVA Akbank Yapı Kredi VakıfBank Halkbank QNB Finansbank DenizBank

How long a transfer to Turkey takes

Most transfers arrive the same day or within a few hours; in some cases it can take up to 24 hours. The time depends on the recipient's bank in Turkey and the time difference — Turkey is one to two hours ahead of Central Europe. The recipient doesn't have to do anything to receive it: the amount is credited to their account automatically.

Fee and limits

Fonmoney charges a fixed fee per transfer, shown before you pay. The limit per transfer depends on your verification level: after the first registration and identity check (required by EU regulations) you can send larger amounts. For a high amount, splitting it across several transfers is usually the simplest route.
