pakistani.siIndependent general guidance, not a government service or an application portal. Requirements vary by location and circumstances. Confirm current eligibility, documents, fees, processing times and the correct office on the official government website before applying. Never send identity documents, CNIC numbers, passwords or OTPs to this site.
Steps to get started
- Check that the provider is authorised in the country you are sending from and uses a legitimate payout channel in Pakistan. Find providers through official regulator information, not social-media recommendations alone.
- Compare the full quote: what you pay, the exchange rate, any charges and what the recipient is expected to receive. Ask about limits, identification checks, cancellation terms and Ramadan or Eid service interruptions.
- Confirm the recipient’s name and payment details privately through a trusted contact method. If someone messages about changed bank details, verify independently before sending.
- Use the provider’s official app, website or authorised location. Avoid informal hundi/hawala arrangements, personal accounts offered by strangers and claims of a special Eid rate that requires urgent payment.
- Save the receipt and tracking reference securely. Check status with the provider if delayed; tell the recipient never to disclose an OTP, PIN or password to someone claiming to release the payment.
Before you apply
No provider is endorsed here, and arrival before Eid is not guaranteed. Confirm current costs, delivery arrangements and any identification requirements directly with the regulated provider. Report suspected fraud through your provider’s official channels.

Frequently asked questions
Which provider is best for sending Eidi?
There is no universal recommendation here. Compare regulated options available in your sending country, their full quotes and the recipient’s needs.
Can someone ask for an OTP to release a transfer?
Do not share OTPs, PINs or passwords with callers or message senders. Contact the provider independently through its official app or published contact details.
Will a transfer arrive before Eid?
Do not assume so. Ask the provider about the transfer status, checks and holiday arrangements before relying on a delivery date.
