Is it legal to send money to Iran from Canada?
Sending money to Iran from Canada is challenging due to the sanctions imposed by the Canadian government. For the past 10 years, people in Canada and Canadians outside of Canada have not been allowed to transfer funds to Iran. Canadian banks, financial institutions and independent money transfer services like Western Union will not process money transfers to Iran due to the uncertain international affairs. So, you may be wondering, is it legal to send money to Iran?
Yes, you can send money to Iran! However, it is important to understand the regulations and restrictions on money transfers to Iran. You can send money transfers to Iran if they are personal remittances (tuition payments, family support), charity or disaster relief aid.
