Q: easiest way to transfer a lot of money to uk

I'm about to sell my house in Shanghai into RMB - as this will be a lot of cash has anyone done anything similar and then transferred the money back to the UK, or another country?

Thanks,

Richard

The most you can wire in one day is $500 USD, you have to convert it to pounds (in your case), and then you can transfer it. The most currency you can get in one day is $5000 USD.

If you have a Merchants Bank card (my case) I can use it in Australia at ATMs, as it is a Union Pay linked card. This might be the best way

There is no easy answer as it is very hard to get a lot of money out of China. Even if you have your currency in cash when you leave, you are restricted by how much you can take out of China and how much you can take into Britain.
Anyway you look at it it will cost you, whatever you do don't do something illegal as you may loose the money and or get put in goal.
You might be better to see a lawyer or someone who can help you with the Legalities!

It doesn't matter what you try to do, you have to do the paperwork, supply your passport or Id. Just be carefull taking advice for your adventure. Most countries like your money to stop within, not be taken out!

Answer of the DayMORE >>
A: Your potential employer is right! Demand for Medical exam before
A:Your potential employer is right! Demand for Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China.    So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital.   -- icnif77
