To send money from Nepal to friends and family in the United States, you can use any of the money transferring companies, such as MoneyGram, Western Union, and Prabhu Money Transfer. MoneyGram and Western Union are U.S. based international companies while Prabhu Money Transfer is a Nepal based company that works just like the other two companies.

Step 1

Select a company from the ones provided in Resources below.

Step 2

Visit the website of the company you choose.

Step 3

Click on "Find Us"/"Locate Agent" and enter your location to find the nearest agent location in Nepal. Write down the address.

Step 4

Visit the company's office and take along the money to be transferred and some sort of personal identification, like an ID card or a passport. Also, take along the fee for the service.

Step 5

Fill out the sending form at the agent's office. The agent will then give you a "Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN)"/"Reference Number."

Step 6

Give this MTCN/Reference number to your friend in the United States as he will need it when he goes to pick up money from the nearest company agent location.
