Overseas Transfer: What to Prepare

There are some details you need to prepare in order to continue with the transfer process. These following details are pretty basic, and many banks require these to go with international remittance. The information you need to prepare are as follows:

  • Bank name and account number of the recipient. In this case, it is Maybank Malaysia.
  • Recipient’s full name, it’d be better if the name you provide is not a nickname.
  • Recipient’s full address
