Transfer money to Australia from the United Kingdom

Once your ANZ account is set up, it is time to consider transferring funds. By transferring funds in advance, you will have ready access to cash when you arrive in Australia. And, if you keep an eye on currency fluctuations, you'll be better placed to make the transfer when foreign exchange rates are in your favour. With ANZ's assistance, transferring funds to Australia can be quick and easy, and you don't even need to visit ANZ to arrange it.
To arrange to transfer your funds to Australia you don't even need to visit ANZ UK to arrange it, just call us on (44-20) 3229 2436 or email us at movingfromuk@anz.com

Your funds will be transferred using our competitive non-public FX rates (please contact our us directly for a competitive FX quote), at a cost of only £10 per transaction. There are no additional hidden costs in Australia when transferring your funds to your ANZ bank account in Australia, and your funds will be available to you once you arrive in Australia and activate your account. We are able to transfer amounts over £25,000, for smaller amounts we can put you in touch with our remittance partners.

To arrange to transfer your funds simply do the following:

  • Provide ANZ UK with a certified copy of your passport;
  • Provide ANZ UK with proof of your residential address in the UK (utility bill or bank statement dated within the last three months will be sufficient); and
  • Visit, call or email ANZ UK and we will be able to assist you.
If you would like to transfer funds to your Australian bank account using another bank in the UK, you can request the bank to send a GBP payment (also known as a telegraphic Transfer or International Monetary Transfer) to your ANZ account as follows:
To: Barclays Bank PLC London (SWIFT: BARCGB22)
Favour: ANZ Melbourne (SWIFT: ANZBAU3M)
BSB : ### ### (your BSB)
Account: ######### (your account number)
Upon receipt of your payment, ANZ will convert your GBP into AUD and credit your account.
