In this era of globalisation, we all have relatives scattered across the world. Foreign education is also becoming increasingly popular. Want to transfer funds to your children as they pursue their education? Or gift a loved one some funds? DBS Bank Remit makes it easy for you to transfer money from India to Australia. With DBS Bank, it is rapid, paperless and hassle-free.
New and existing customers can begin the remittance process through the DBS Bank website. New customers should download the digibank app and set up their account before remitting money. Existing customers can simply log into their DBS Bank net banking account to initiate the process.
