I have tried to make an account on PayPal or moneybookers but failed because both don't accept Egyptian members. Now I want to know about a working money transfer system in Egypt. I want to know if anyone knows a reliable and internationally accepted money transfer system working here in Egypt.

Thanks

2- SWIFT
3- Check in your name but will take a long time and a lot of procedures

If you want to send money :
1- I guess it will be through Western Union

Egyt has been eliminated from the list of countries that didnot support the fight against money laundering in February 2004. So now it´s possible also to use the service of Moneybookers in Egypt.

Thanks

Moneybookers in Iran Jun 10, 2004

I started with moneybookers few months ago as it had Iran in it's list of countries but when I received some amounts and wanted to transfer them to my bank here in Iran, it did not approve my bank.

I contacted their support team and asked for help. It took two or three days but they added my Iranian bank and now the system works like a charm.
