The beautiful country of Canada has emerged as a favourite destination for Indians to immigrate and while you may be residing miles away from your home country, you can still ensure that your financial commitments in India are met. You can easily and quickly remit money to an NRE account and use the funds to facilitate payments for medical emergencies, utility bills, school and college fees, investments and even your family’s everyday expenses.

You may choose any transfer channel of your choice and once the money is credited to your NRE account, you will receive an instant SMS and email alert.
An NRE account comes with various inward remittance benefits including:
