To transfer money from an Israeli bank account to Belarus, if direct transfers of ILS to BYN/RUB are not feasible, one suggested method is to find individuals in exchange chats willing to buy Israeli Shekels (ILS) for Russian Rubles (RUB), which can then be transferred to Belarus.
Direct transfers from Russian banks to Israeli bank accounts are highly risky
Direct transfers from Russian banks to Israeli bank accounts are highly risky. Major Israeli banks (e.g., Bank Hapoalim) monitor incoming funds from non-Israeli sources strictly. Transfers from Russia can lead to account or card blocks due to AML/sanctions compliance policies. Transfers from other countries (e.g., USA) are generally viewed with less suspicion by bank staff. If a transfer is blocked, the funds may be returned or held for investigation.
Options for money transfers from Israel to Russia after Golden Crown ceased operations include: 1
Options for money transfers from Israel to Russia after Golden Crown ceased operations include:
1. Card-to-card transfers: Limited due to sanctions and SWIFT disconnection for Russian banks.
2. Cryptocurrency: Possible via personal wallets (e.g., Binance, Trust Wallet). Requires understanding of crypto mechanics; significant risks for inexperienced users.
3. STB Union: Mentioned as a working service, with a limit of up to 400,000 (presumably RUB) for transfers via an activated wallet.
4. P2P cash exchange (shekels for rubles via SBP): Involves high risks of account blocking under Russian Federal Law 115-FZ ("anti-money laundering law") due to transactions with unknown individuals, which can be flagged as "dropper activity" or suspicious operations. Banks have the right to freeze accounts and require extensive documentation, sometimes taking significant time to resolve. Transferring money between one's own accounts is generally safer, but even then, banks can flag unusual activity.
Note: Direct transfers from an Israeli card to a Russian card might incur high international transfer fees (e.g., a user reported a rate of 32 for ILS to RUB).
