How to send money to Liberia from Russia: LRD and USD via international bank transfers

The route, the receiving bank and the payout amount are agreed before payment.

Liberia is a West African nation with historically close ties to the United States. The country uses both LRD (Liberian dollar) and USD in parallel: US dollars are widely accepted in shops, services, and payments on equal terms with the national currency. Liberia has not imposed its own large-scale financial sanctions against Russia; however, international transfers still undergo standard AML/KYC checks by banks and correspondents. ATM24 carries out transfers in LRD or USD through available SWIFT routes to a Liberian bank account. Among the main banks working with international operations are Ecobank Liberia, GT Bank Liberia, and LBDI. The ability to accept a particular payment depends on the bank, correspondent chain, amount, and purpose of the transfer.

Bank details and receiving methods

The IBAN format does not apply in Liberia: for international transfers, a bank SWIFT/BIC, standard account number, and recipient's full name are typically used. The timeframe for international crediting is several business days and is clarified depending on the receiving bank and route. For domestic transfers to a local bank account, crediting may take from several minutes. LRD or USD cash is also available through separate channels; current cities and payment points are clarified when submitting an ATM24 application. Payment from Russia is possible in RUB cash, USDT, and other available currencies.

Highest recommendations for this service! Honest exchange, at a good rate, everything fast, without unnecessary hassle like at other exchangers (verification, video confirmation and other crap). Pleasant people to communicate with, respond tactfully to all questions, don't disappear, perform the sequence of actions clearly. I've been in immigration for almost 10 years, traveled many countries, so I can compare. Honest and decent compatriots, especially in money exchange, practically don't exist these days, a rare dying species, as they say. Thank you, guys! It was a pleasure to interact. I will use you again and recommend to friends.
