I vaguely remember somebody asked similar questions before, but I can't find it where it is. Sorry for the repeated question.

Does anybody know what is the fastest and the most economic way to send Canadian $ back to China? Your reply is highly appreciated.

just send your personal check.

But it is slow. Plus, the fund will be held in Bank of China for about 2-3 month before you can cash out.

Anybody knows other better ways?

I think you can go to MONEY MART(WESTERN UNION).But you must pay $30 for the $1000,and then $2000 for $34(I think),and then up!
Sb told me that you can send it through the bank,but there are only some banks take it,and you must see which city you want to send!! and it will pay less!!

我刚汇完，通过BMO银行wired tranfer，几千块只收25块，10天就到了。

你查以前的帖子就知道该怎么办了。

Thank you for your information. I just talked to BMO and they told me the same. It seems that the fastest way is the wired transfer which you pay 0.2% of your tranfer value + $10 communication fee with a minimum of $25.

When you do this, BMO requires detailed beneficiary's account information in China. Could you share me what exactly account information BMO requires besides account number? Thanks for your reply in advance.

BTW, where is the previous posts on the topic?

Ordering Customer's Name, Address(Street No)
Benificiary's
Name, Address(with Street No.)Account No
Correspondent bank No
Name
Beneficiary's bank: Name Address(with St. No)
Swift Code

They me halp you find the Corespondent Bank for you if the beneficiary's bank is not on the list.

Does anybody know if 电汇(T/T) is a Chinese translation for "wired transfer"?
