Send Foreign Remittances to Pakistan Legally and Get Amazing Benefits

State Bank of Pakistan has launched "Pakistan Remittance Initiative" to facilitate a convenient and efficient flow of foreign remittances from overseas Pakistanis. It will also create investment opportunities in Pakistan for overseas Pakistanis by providing them an easy and legal way of bringing foreign earned money to the home country and set up their business and industry in Pakistan. Overseas Pakistanis send about 15 to 20 billion US Dollars annually to Pakistan through legal ways. If they send all of their money through proper and legal channels, it will be an immense support to the country's economy. Many people send their remittances through 'hundi hawala' mainly due to their ignorance of the legal channels and benefits of sending the money through legal ways. 

Banks, authorized exchange companies and Pakistan post offices are legal ways of sending and receiving foreign remittances. All major banks have PRI cash over counters for payments of remittances.
