Money Transfer from Israel to Chad

In accordance with the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, section 170(a), most money transfers from Israel to Chad require the approval of a tax assessor on behalf of the Tax Authority.

Today, Israeli banks are not willing to accept money from Chad. However, in some cases it is possible to carry out complex tax planning that will enable the receipt of Chadian money in Israel, so it is very important to consult before transferring the funds. Contact us.
