Receiving in Netherlands
- Dutch accounts use an 18-character IBAN starting with NL plus the SWIFT/BIC code; ask the beneficiary to send it as printed by their bank.
- Universities usually collect the IND proof-of-funds amount and the first year's tuition together before the visa application; they publish the exact EUR figure and their own bank details — wire in EUR and choose the OUR charge option so an intermediary bank cannot take its fee out of the credited amount so the credited amount matches.
- Dutch banks generally do not charge for incoming EUR wires into personal accounts, but a Dutch account normally cannot be opened until you have a BSN, so early payments go to the university or landlord.
The Netherlands is 3.5 hours behind IST in summer (4.5 in winter); EUR wires typically credit the next working day.

Applies to:Sending money abroad through ICICI NetBanking or iMobile as a Resident Individual. Branch and NRI cases aren't modelled here.
- Home corridors cost ₹1,000 — with guaranteed delivery. Since 1 Apr 2026, USD→USA, GBP→UK, EUR→Eurozone, AUD→Australia and CAD→Canada carry a ₹1,000 commission that ICICI labels 'Full Value Credit (Guaranteed Delivery)': no intermediary deductions, the full amount reaches the beneficiary bank. Every other route is ₹750 and non-guaranteed.↗
- ₹750 routes can lose money in transit. On the ₹750 non-guaranteed routes ICICI's charges don't include intermediary or correspondent bank fees — those banks can deduct their own charges from what the recipient receives, and ICICI publishes no amount for them.↗
- Branch costs more. At a branch the ₹750 routes cost ₹1,000 and USD→USA costs ₹1,500 (vs ₹1,000 online); the other four home corridors are ₹1,000 either way.↗
- GST is charged twice. GST applies to both the commission and the currency conversion (a slab), so your total GST is more than 18% of the commission alone.↗
- TCS on large transfers. For general purposes, 20% TCS applies on LRS spending above ₹10 lakh a year — refundable as a tax credit at ITR time.
- Skip the branch. Use NetBanking or iMobile instead of a branch: ₹250 cheaper on most routes and ₹500 cheaper for USD→USA.
- Compare the ₹1,000 with other banks' OUR totals. On the five home corridors the extra ₹250 buys guaranteed full-value delivery, so weigh it against other banks' commission plus correspondent charge — not their base commission alone.
