What we've measured on SEK → ETB

Across 43 days of our own recorded quotes, the gap between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 22.9% (widest single day: 25.4%). On a 1,000 SEK transfer that is the difference between the best and worst choice.

The leader has not changed once in that window — TalkRemit has topped this corridor every day we have recorded it. That makes it unusually stable, but it is still worth checking before you send.

Provider rates on this corridor are measured against Wise's published mid-market rate. No central bank publishes a rate for ETB, so the yardstick here comes from Wise — which we also rank, and which therefore sits exactly at the reference by definition. We disclose this rather than hide it.

Recipients in Ethiopia can be paid via cash pickup, a bank account and a mobile wallet, based on what the providers above actually price for this corridor.

Figures come from our own append-only rate history, not from provider marketing. See the methodology and rate trends.

SEK to ETB — Frequently asked questions

What is the cheapest way to send SEK to ETB?

Dahabshiil currently offers the best value for SEK → ETB, delivering 17,512 ETB for 1,000 SEK. We rank by the total amount received after fees and exchange-rate markup, updated every 4 hours. It has also led on every one of the 43 days we have recorded this corridor, so the answer here has been stable.

What is the current SEK to ETB exchange rate?

The best available rate is 1 SEK = 17.98 ETB via Dahabshiil. The reference (mid-market) rate is 16.07, taken from Wise's published mid-market rate. Across 43 days of our own records, the spread between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 22.9%. Rates are updated every 4 hours. Always confirm the final rate on the provider's site before sending.

Are there hidden fees when sending SEK to ETB?

On this corridor the two costs split roughly 3.31% in visible fees and 0.32% in exchange-rate markup, averaged over the 6 providers here that publish a fee — so the markup is the smaller part, about 9% of what you pay. 2 of them charge no fee at all on this corridor, which is exactly why fee alone is a poor guide. We rank by the amount your recipient actually receives, which captures both. Learn how fees work →

Can I send SEK to a mobile wallet in Ethiopia?

Yes. Several providers on this page pay out to Telebirr, M-Pesa, CBE Birr and HelloCash in Ethiopia. Choose your wallet as the delivery method at checkout on the provider's site — the recipient gets the money directly in their mobile-wallet balance, usually within minutes. Rankings above already account for the fee and exchange-rate markup, so the best value applies to wallet payout too.
