Skyline
Personal international transfers
Skyline helps customers arrange funds for education, family needs and life in New Zealand or abroad. Tell our local team where your funds are held, the destination, currencies and purpose so we can explain the service and requirements.
- Education costs and living expenses for students and their families.
- Moving to New Zealand, living abroad and family funding arrangements.
- Property, investment, business travel and other lawful funding needs, subject to applicable requirements.
Service availability, funding and recipient arrangements depend on the customer and transaction. Confirm your requirements before applying or paying.
Currency exchange
Confirm the currencies and arrangements
For CNY, NZD or other currency exchange needs, tell our team the currencies, amount, fund location and recipient destination. We will discuss the available direction, funding and payout methods, and applicable quote.
Confirm the execution rate, quote validity, total payable and expected receipt before proceeding. A calculator estimate is a guide; the confirmed transaction quote and conditions apply.
