    First of all you have to submit a w8 form which contains some tax information. Then you have to supply the sender with your bank name, account number & swift code only. PM me if you need further details. I've been recieveing wire payments every week since past 2 years

    Check with your bank for a swift or some code. Usually it will be on your cheque book. Other than this, the remaining stuff is usual, ur Bank details with address and your name and account details.
    It usually takes 1 working day, but sometimes depending on the bank it will be from 2-3 days
    If it goes beyond that, then ask the person transferring the money to check it out.

    but unlike banks, westernunion is costlier. For a couple of days, if that additional amount is OK then you can try the other two. It all depends on how much can you let go in commission and how fast you want it

    Did you ask your bank? They will give you the information you need to receive the transfer? Good Luck

    Yes, You have to provide the Nostro account details for easy transfers. You may contact your Axis bank Branch for the Nostro details. Wire Transfers may take 2 to 3 weeks.
