Sending and receiving money across borders has become necessary in the 21st century.

Whether you’re an overseas Pakistani supporting your family back home or a business receiving international payments, remittance plays a vital role in financial transactions. But what exactly is remittance, and how can you make the most of it?

This guide will explain everything you need to know about home remittance, how it works, and how JS Bank’s Home Remittance Account (HRA) makes the process simple, secure, and cost-free.

What Is Remittance?

Remittance refers to transferring money from one country to another, usually by individuals working abroad sending funds back home to their families. It is a crucial source of income for many households and plays a significant role in Pakistan’s economy by contributing to foreign exchange reserves.

There are two main types of remittance:

1. Inward Remittance: Money sent from overseas to a recipient in Pakistan.
2. Outward Remittance: Money transferred from Pakistan to another country.

For Pakistan, inward remittances are particularly important as millions of overseas Pakistanis send funds to support their families, invest in businesses, and contribute to the economy.

How Does Home Remittance Work?

Sending and receiving money internationally involves various financial institutions, including banks and money transfer services. Here’s how it works:

• The sender, usually an overseas Pakistani, transfers funds through a bank, online service, or money transfer company.
• JS Bank processes the transaction and converts the currency if needed.
• The recipient in Pakistan receives the money directly into their bank account or collects cash from an authorized remittance center.

JS Bank’s Home Remittance Account (HRA) makes the process seamless, offering instant transactions without additional charges.
