Agrani Bank International Money Transfer: Bangladesh Guide

12 Nov 2026


Sending money to an Agrani Bank account in Bangladesh requires accurate recipient information and a transfer method that supports the bank. Before arranging an international money transfer, check the required banking details, applicable fees, exchange rate and estimated delivery time.

Agrani Bank provides international banking and remittance-related services through its correspondent relationships and authorised dealer branches. Recipients may also be able to collect international remittances through supported cash pickup arrangements.

This guide explains how to send money to Agrani Bank from abroad, the details you may need, how SWIFT transfers work and how to check payout options through ACE Money Transfer. ACE Money Transfer Limited is FCA-authorised as an Authorised Payment Institution (FRN: 506692). Verify its status on the FCA Register.

Quick Answer: How Can You Send Money to Agrani Bank Bangladesh?

You can send money to an Agrani Bank recipient through an international bank transfer or a money transfer provider that supports the required receiving method.

Before sending, check the following:

The recipient's full name as registered with Agrani Bank.

Their bank account number and branch details, if you are arranging a bank deposit.

The correct SWIFT/BIC code if your sending bank requires one.

The transfer fees and exchange rate.

The estimated delivery time and the amount the recipient is expected to receive.

You can also check ACE Money Transfer's Bangladesh transfer page for available payout methods. ACE's published Bangladesh information identifies Agrani Bank among the participating banks for its ONE-PIN cash pickup service. This is a cash collection option, not confirmation of direct deposits into every Agrani Bank account.

What Should You Know About Agrani Bank PLC Before Sending Money?

Agrani Bank PLC manages international money transfers into Bangladesh through its banking network as a commercial bank in Bangladesh. Its services include personal and business banking, foreign exchange and international remittance-related facilities. Agrani Bank PLC is a state-owned commercial bank in Bangladesh. According to its official website, it operates 979 branches, as stated on its bank overview page, checked on 6 November 2026. Source: Agrani Bank.

For customers sending money from abroad, two areas of the bank's published information are particularly relevant:

SWIFT information: Agrani Bank publishes its SWIFT/BIC information and a list of branches connected to the SWIFT network.

Authorised dealer branches: The bank publishes details of its authorised dealer branches, overseas exchange houses and correspondent institutions, including inward remittance channels via MTOs and partnerships with exchange houses.

You can review these details through Agrani Bank's official SWIFT information page and its authorised dealer branch directory.

These arrangements help facilitate international banking and foreign exchange transactions. However, the receiving method and processing requirements depend on the type of transfer and the institutions involved.

If your recipient is expecting money in Bangladesh, confirm whether the transfer will be credited to their bank account or collected as cash. These are different payout methods and may require different information.

What Are the Ways to Send Money to Agrani Bank from Abroad?

The available method depends on your sending country, transfer provider and the recipient's preferred way of receiving funds.

1. International Bank Transfer Through SWIFT

A SWIFT transfer is a common method for sending money between banks in different countries. It uses the SWIFT financial messaging network to communicate payment instructions between financial institutions.

If you want to send money directly to an Agrani Bank account, your sending bank may offer an international SWIFT transfer.

The general process involves:

Contacting your sending bank to confirm that it supports international transfers to Bangladesh.

Collecting the recipient's bank account details.

Confirming the correct Agrani Bank SWIFT/BIC code.

Providing the recipient's branch information if requested.

Entering the amount and payment details.

Reviewing the fees, exchange rate and estimated delivery time before authorising the payment.

Your sending bank may also use intermediary or correspondent banks to process the transfer. These institutions may apply additional charges or processing requirements.

Important: A SWIFT transfer is different from a money transfer provider's cash pickup service. Confirm the receiving method before choosing either option.

2. Cash Pickup Through ACE Money Transfer

ACE Money Transfer offers cash pickup as a receiving option in Bangladesh. Check its official Bangladesh transfer page for current availability. Its published Bangladesh guide identifies Agrani Bank among the participating banks in the ONE-PIN cash collection service.

This option may be useful when beneficiaries in Bangladesh prefer to collect funds through local disbursement options, with money delivered by cash pickup where available rather than directly into a bank account.

To check the available arrangements:

Visit the ACE Money Transfer Bangladesh page.

Select Bangladesh as your destination.

Review the available cash pickup options for your sending country.

Check whether Agrani Bank or the relevant collection option is displayed.

Review the transaction details before confirming your payment.

For cash collection, ACE's FAQ explains that the recipient generally needs the transaction reference or PIN and valid identification.

The recipient should follow the collection instructions provided for the specific transaction. Do not assume that every Agrani Bank branch supports every cash pickup transfer, even though cash pickups may be offered through numerous branches and agent points.

3. Other Money Transfer Providers

You may also use another international money transfer provider if it supports your recipient's preferred payout method.

Before choosing a provider, check:

Whether it supports direct bank deposits to Agrani Bank.

Whether it offers cash pickup through an Agrani Bank location.

Which identification and recipient details are required.

The total transfer cost, including any applicable charges.

The estimated time for the funds to become available.

A provider's general Bangladesh transfer service does not automatically confirm that it supports every receiving bank. Always check the specific payout option before sending money.

How Can You Send Money to Agrani Bank Through ACE?

If you want to use ACE Money Transfer, first check which receiving methods are available for your sending country. The available options may differ depending on the transfer route.

Follow these steps:

Step 1: Visit the ACE Bangladesh Transfer Page

Open the ACE Money Transfer Bangladesh page to sign up or download the ACE app before selecting Bangladesh.

Start by selecting Bangladesh as the destination country, then review the available payout methods.

If you want your recipient to collect money through Agrani Bank, select Agrani Bank when the relevant cash pickup option appears.

Step 2: Enter the Transfer Amount

Enter the amount you want to send and review the transaction quote.

Check the following before proceeding:

The exchange rate.

The applicable transfer fee.

The payment method.

The expected amount the recipient will receive.

The displayed quote helps you understand the cost of your transfer before you confirm it. Exchange rates fluctuate and the rate you receive may differ from any rates quoted. Always check the live rate at acemoneytransfer.com before sending.

Step 3: Add the Recipient's Information

Enter the recipient's details as requested by ACE.

For cash pickup, provide the information required for the beneficiary and collection process. For a bank deposit, if that option is available for your selected route, you can send money to Agrani Bank via bank deposit by providing the requested bank account information, and transfers are typically paid out in Bangladeshi taka (BDT), making the process easy to follow.

Make sure the details are accurate and match the recipient's identification or bank records.

Step 4: Review and Confirm

Check the transfer amount, recipient details, payout method, exchange rate and fees.

Once you have reviewed the information, complete the payment using an available payment method.

Keep your transaction reference so you can check the transfer status or contact customer support if you need assistance. Where available, transfers to Agrani Bank can be tracked in real time through ACE's tools, which adds more transparency. ACE also uses strong security measures to help keep transactions safe.

You can find further registration information, receiving methods and transaction tracking in the ACE Money Transfer FAQs.

Remember: ACE's published ONE-PIN information identifies Agrani Bank as a participating cash pickup bank. Do not select a direct bank deposit unless Agrani Bank is specifically available in the payout options for your transaction.
