NDB Bank Strengthens Dubai Remittance Support to deliver Comprehensive Remittance Solutions

NDB Bank has strengthened its presence in Dubai with the appointment of Mr. Akila Bogahawatta as its dedicated remittance representative, underscoring the Bank’s commitment to Sri Lankan expatriates in the UAE. Mr. Bogahawatta will serve as a one‑stop liaison for all NDB remittance services, helping customers select the fastest and most cost‑effective channels to send money home.

NDB offers multiple remittance options to suit everyone’s needs. Through Western Union, senders can arrange instant cash pickups at any NDB branch or authorised agent, such as Singer (Sri Lanka) PLC, Regional Development Bank, Sarvodaya Development Finance, and CDB Finance, simply by providing a Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) and valid ID. For direct account credits, NDB Qik Remittance delivers funds securely to any NDB or third‑party bank account in Sri Lanka, complete with real‑time confirmation and minimal paperwork.

To reach customers in over 200 countries, NDB partners with global networks including Federal Exchange, UREMIT, Mastercard, Instant Cash, and Mondial Bony Service. These collaborations ensure that remitters can choose their preferred provider and track each transaction from sender to beneficiary via SMS or email updates.

Additionally, NDB’s Remit Saver Account transforms remittances into long‑term savings. This tailored account offers higher interest rates, NEOS mobile and online banking access, e‑statements on request, preferential fixed‑deposit rates, and complimentary insurance coverage, allowing families to grow their savings and plan for the future.

“Sri Lankans in the UAE depend on reliable remittances to support loved ones and build financial security back home,” said Mr. Bogahawatta. “I look forward to guiding our customers through every step of the process, ensuring they benefit from NDB’s speed, transparency, and dedicated support.”
