DIRECT ANSWER
Send money from Netherlands to United Kingdom
For 1.000 EUR, compare more than the transfer fee: look at the recipient amount after the exchange rate, funding method and any external charges. A Wise estimate is a point-in-time display estimate, not a guaranteed transaction price.RECIPIENT AND PAYMENT ROUTE
UK sort code or an international GBP account?
For a sterling payment into a local UK bank account, the recipient normally needs to provide a six-digit sort code and eight-digit account number. A GBP account held outside the UK may require different international identifiers.
- For a bank in the UK, verify the beneficiary name, six-digit sort code and eight-digit account number.
- For GBP accounts outside the UK, ask the receiving bank for its IBAN or international payout instructions rather than assuming local UK details work.
- If the recipient expects a fixed GBP amount, compare the source cost for exactly that target amount, when the route supports fixed-target quoting.
- Treat arrival times as estimates: funding method, banking hours and checks affect delivery.
Conversion versus settlement route
EUR→GBP converted with local UK payout is not the same as sending GBP by SWIFT to an overseas GBP account. Extra network charges and recipient banking terms can change the result.
For a small personal transfer, minimum fees may be the main concern. For rent or an invoice stated in sterling, establish the exact amount arriving first.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is this Wise rate guaranteed?
No. It is a display estimate only. Check the final rate and fees on Wise before paying.
Do I need an IBAN to send pounds to a UK bank?
For a normal supported local GBP payment to a UK bank, Wise asks for the sort code and account number. Foreign-located GBP accounts can need international details.
