Incoming International Wire Transfers

The information on this page is for wire transfers originating outside the United States being sent to BFSFCU. If you wish to send or receive money within the U.S., please view this page on domestic wire transfers.

 IMPORTANT INFORMATION

• Foreign exchange rates are a part of international wire transfers. Foreign currency exchange rates are internal to our processor and are not reflected in currency exchange rate information provided by other sources.
• Whether money is being sent or received from the U.S., it will need to be converted to or from a foreign currency. A Currency Conversion Charge based on the transaction size will apply. Learn about Incoming Foreign Currencies here. You can avoid the Foreign Currency Conversion Charge by sending U.S. Dollars to your BFSFCU account.
• There are often associated fees charged by the financial institution and any intermediary banks. Some banks charge fees ranging anywhere between $15-$75 depending on the type of transfer being made. BFSFCU does not charge a fee for incoming wires.
