How to buy foreign currency in cash from National Australia Bank
There are 2 ways to buy foreign currency in cash at the National Australia Bank:
- Order it online
- Head down to an NAB branch and order it
1. Online
Head to the NAB foreign currency cash website. Enter the amount you need. Choose how you would like to pay for it (either Bpay or card). You need to choose which branch you'd like to pick it up from and a date to pick it up. Finally, you'll need to confirm your details and have your I.D. on hand when you collect your foreign currency.
There is a minimum order size of $500 and a maximum limit of $5000. You can pick the order up from your local branch in 2-3 business days, but you need to bring some I.D.
2. At the branch
Using a branch to buy your currency isn't the quickest option, because a lot depends on how much stock of currency the branch itself is holding. In most cases, the branch will need to order the currency in, which can take 2-5 business days.
Make sure you have some I.D. with you, because this is a requirement for any transaction.
Charges, Currency Conversion Fees and Commissions
NAB doesn't charge a fee to order currency to be picked up at a branch. If you want to pay for your currency using a credit or debt card, there are card processing fees.
Please note, NAB do not give you the wholesale exchange rate you see on Google or XE.com. While a worse rate is not a commission or a fee, it still adds to your cost of purchasing currency.
