Send money to Germany
Transfers in euros for students funding a blocked account and paying the semester contribution, families supporting relatives in Germany, and gifts — through our authorised partner bank, with the live rate and every charge shown before you pay.
What the receiver in Germany must give you
- Receiver's full name
- IBAN (22 characters, starts with DE)
- Bank name and SWIFT / BIC code
Check the details with our SWIFT, IBAN and bank-code checker before you book — a wrong digit is the usual reason a transfer is delayed or returned.
Purposes and documents
| Purpose | Key documents |
|---|---|
| University fees | Fee invoice or admission letter, student passport, PAN |
| Student living costs | Admission letter, student passport and visa, PAN |
| Supporting a close relative | Proof of relationship, PAN, address proof |
| Gift to a close relative | Proof of relationship, PAN, address proof |
| Medical treatment | Hospital estimate or invitation, patient's passport |
The sender and the receiver can never be the same person for a family or gift transfer. The partner bank has the final say on documents.
Studying in Germany
Most students need a blocked account (Sperrkonto) holding €11,904 a year (€992 a month) for the visa. See blocked account and send money to a blocked account.
Good to know
- Payments to a German IBAN in euros travel through SEPA once they reach Europe and usually arrive within one to two working days.

Common questions
How do I send money to Germany from India?
Book the transfer online with GoRemit: choose the purpose, enter the amount in euros and upload your documents. Once we check them, you pay our partner bank directly from your own account and it sends the money by SWIFT.
How much can I send to Germany?
A resident individual can send up to USD 2,50,000 a financial year under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme, across all banks and money changers together.
What does it cost?
The exchange rate, the partner bank's charges, GST on the conversion and any TCS — all shown in the quote above before you pay. GoRemit charges you nothing for arranging the transfer.
Is there tuition at German public universities?
Most public universities charge no tuition but a semester contribution of a few hundred euros. Some states and private universities charge fees — pay what the invoice says.
