How to withdraw money from Ukraine to another country?

In connection with the war in Ukraine, many citizens have a need to withdraw or transfer their savings to another country.

If we are talking about small amounts, then this is as simple as possible, because you can export an amount of 10,000 euros from Ukraine without additional documents.

But with more money, bigger problems can arise, due to which you can lose all your savings.

The situation with non-cash money is also not clear, since problems have arisen in the past when processing regular bank transfers abroad, and now it is completely difficult to predict the development of events.

Transfer money from a bank account from Ukraine

The main rule that should be followed at this time is not to try to transfer all funds in one payment, preferably divided into amounts of no more than 1000 euros.

A large transfer of several tens of thousands of dollars will almost certainly be blocked, but several transactions within a few days are almost guaranteed to go through.

I will not list all the options available today, but will name only those that I had to use myself:

Using cryptocurrencies

Although direct withdrawals from a Ukrainian bank to cryptocurrency wallets are now prohibited, there are a lot of exchange offices that allow you to solve this problem.

The easiest way is to select the desired exchanger through the rating of similar services https://www.bestchange.ru/

Thanks to the rating, you can easily find the desired direction of exchange and the rate at which it will be carried out.

If we talk about the profitability of the exchange, then, for example, today the PrivatBank rate is 38.16 for 1 US dollar, and you can exchange the hryvnia for a stablecon at the rate of 39.82, that is, only 1.66 hryvnia more expensive.

But as a result, you will have a cryptocurrency that can be used anywhere in the world. The commission for exchanging US dollars for stablecoins is about 2%.

To transfer cryptocurrency you need to have a cryptocurrency wallet, at the moment I can recommend trustee wallet:

It’s a pretty good wallet with a lot of cryptocurrencies, it can be installed on your phone, I’ve been using it for more than a year. Just in case, install the application on two gadgets, for example, yours and your wife’s.

After you install the wallet application on your phone, you can begin the exchange itself.

To do this, just follow a few steps:

• View your USDT or other cryptocurrency wallet address in the app.
• Select an exchange office on the service https://www.bestchange.ru/ and go to the desired exchanger
• Perform the exchange itself, indicating the address of your trustee wallet

Once the money is in your wallet or, in fact, in your phone, you can easily withdraw it from Ukraine to any country, and then cash it through the above service or transfer it to a foreign bank account.

Transfer money from Ukraine through an online exchange office

In Poland, I use such an interesting service as plugins/system/oyl/src/Redirect.php?oyl=Zze8tgALcAj6xqlABTd%2Bm01b%2BzW0xPgK%2F4izd%2BNEnkbYMrHX7uPSPg%3D%3D it allows you to easily transfer money from Ukrainian bank cards.

However, it should be noted that the card must be in a currency, and accordingly the transfer will be made in the currency of your choice.

After you have transferred the money, it is on the balance of your account, then it can be transferred with minimal commissions to any selected country or exchanged for another currency.

Is it possible to withdraw cash from Ukraine?

As mentioned above, you can withdraw an amount of 10,000 euros without any problems; if you want to withdraw large amounts, it is advisable not to carry cash with you.

At the border, cash that exceeds the established quota is confiscated every day, so it’s better not to take risks.

It is better to withdraw money from Ukraine through cryptocurrencies; the bestchange service also has such an opportunity. That is, you give cash, and your wallet in cryptocurrency is replenished with this amount:

As a result, you can easily withdraw the amount you need abroad and then exchange it for real currency. The size of the reserves is quite large; if you want, you can actually exchange an amount of several million dollars.

All you have to do is choose which translation option is beneficial for you.
