In September 2016, President Obama eased all US economic sanctions against Côte d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast), opening up the ability for US banks and independent services to begin offering money transfers to and from the country.
Despite the lifting of sanctions, until foreign banks establish a stronger presence in Côte d’Ivoire, your options are limited to a handful of banks and providers. Confirm that your bank or service is able to complete your transfer before handing over your money.
Use our comparison calculator to assess transfer fees, exchange rates and other details for sending funds to Ivory Coast with our money transfer partners.
The exchange rate determines how much one country’s currency is worth in another currency. When a country’s currency is strong, it yields more money when exchanging it in a country with a weaker currency.
However, most countries’ exchange rates are flexible, which means it can change from moment to moment. Factors that influence the exchange rate include interest rates, economic stability and inflation.

Before you can send an international money transfer to the Ivory Coast, you will need to provide:
Once you’ve handed over your money, you’ll receive a transaction reference number. Use this reference number to track the progress of your funds.
Depending on your circumstances, you may find that you need to send an urgent transfer. For example, you might have a close relative traveling through the Ivory Coast who has all their luggage, including their cash, stolen. Happily, WorldRemit, MoneyGram and Western Union offer rapid transfers to Côte d’Ivoire. Just remember to double-check the exchange rate and fee that applies to your transaction to make sure you’re completely aware of how much the transfer will cost.
As for anyone who has been a victim of theft in Côte d’Ivoire, their first move should be to report the matter to the local police. They may also be able to receive emergency assistance from their travel insurer or credit card issuer.
