The exchange rate is a second charge
Navy Federal says the correspondent bank's rate factors in the cost of exchanging the money on top of the exchange rate itself, and the rate is quoted before you send.
That markup does not appear on the fee schedule. Ask the bank for the rate before you confirm, then compare it with the reference rate in the calculator below to see what it costs in dollars.
Cutoff times
Navy Federal publishes only an incoming cutoff: wires received before 6:30 p.m. ET are processed the same day.

How it works: the cost of a quote is everything you pay minus what the money the recipient gets is worth at the mid-market rate. That catches a fee and an exchange-rate markup in one number. Assumes the fee is paid on top of the amount sent; if a provider takes its fee out of the amount, enter what the recipient gets instead of the rate. The mid-market rate is the ECB euro reference rate crossed to dollars. ECB reference rates are published for information purposes only.
