Bank charges-Sabadell

If you haven’t had the money paid to your sabadell account yet, don’t let it happen. Instead, notify your lawyer of your Irish account details for the payment, Ireland is euros after all. And it shouldn’t cost you anything much at all.

What we did was take the Bankers Draft into moneycorp in quesada and paid it into there.
Never took it to Sabadell. I opened the account in the UK, give them a ring and ask them.
Other options is ask your Solicitor to pay the money into a Wise account some Solicitors will do this. But check with them in plenty of time before you go to the Notary.
I have read on other sites where people have done it. If you speak to wise after money in your account they give you a better rate of exchange for a larger sum.

Transfer the money using SEPA transfers. This is the same as a normal bank transfer and can be sent to any of the 27 Eurozone countries.

Is SEPA same as bank transfer?
A SEPA – or Single Euro Payments Area – bank transfer lets you send and receive cross-border payments in euros. It works the same way as a domestic bank transfer, so long as both countries are inside the eurozone.

Is Ireland in the SEPA zone?
All 27 EU member states (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden) are SEPA countries.

Paul is right, take advantage of being in the Eurozone.
However, the last time I looked into this (some years back) the limit for free transfers was €50,000
Above that the bank can invent it's own charges.
So check first and then do transfers under €50k.

I'm pretty sure that when all is completed with a sale at the notary you will get a bankers draft. I don't think you get an option to transfers funds? You need to somehow deposit the draft. Usually with a Spanish bank or using a moneycorp currencies direct type.

Hi,
Please get some professional advice before making a decision. I've sent you a p.m.

I had to transfer money between my accounts, there is no cost up to €20,000 for internal transfers. My business has used Currencies direct for 20 years.
To get around high transfer fees, I transferred my Euros at €20k a time 7 times and one €10k to currencies Direct Spanish account, they then transferred £Sterling to my UK Santander account at very favourable exchange rates. I had no fees.
But if you are moving Euro to Euro, why not simply find out the maximum transfer value that’s free of charge! Then every day transfer that amount, if it’s 500k you are moving, and say the limit is 20k then over 25 days you moved it totally free of costs..
