Cross-border payment
You can transfer funds to any country of the world
You can transfer funds in euro and in the required foreign currency to another account opened with a bank that operates abroad. International transfers are available online or at a bank unit of your choice.
To choose the best way to transfer your money cross-border, consider the destination country, the currency and how fast you need your funds transferred.
This method is used to transfer funds in different currencies to just about all countries of the world.

- Money is transferred to many banks worldwide

- The cost of transfer can be covered entirely by the payer (OUR) or the payer pays SEB Bank commission fees and the payee pays other bank commission fees (SHA)
