Go to their website (e.g. FNB.co.za) and write to contact them. Someone will follow up and forward you the application forms to be completed and mailed back. Some additional endorsements and notarization made me stop.

hi. In europe, there currency is euro so sending zar to anyone there is gonna be a burden. First she wil need to convert it to euro ....etc... better this way. Dollar usd acct will be a wise choice as dollar is more like a universal currency! To send n receive. The beneficiary will need d sortcode; some codes from the bank that is your bank. You can also get all this info from your bank. Every bank has his numbers.so yes u can send money to europe. You wil need a euro acct here in nigeria via which it will be sent. The recepient wil receive it thro his/her bank over there. In stanbic, minimum opening balance is 100 euro or dollar or pound. hope this helps. Thanks
