The ways to send

  • Apps — naira in, birr out to a bank or wallet where supported.
  • Bank transfer for documented purposes such as trade, tuition or travel.
  • An FX partner for larger, business-size payments.

Rate and documentation

The birr has been through major reforms and controls, so many payments settle in dollars — compare the dollars delivered, keep proof of purpose, and see sending abroad for the wider rules.
