After TÜİK announced the CPI rate for 2025 as 30.9%, the EFT and remittance fees for 2026 have been finalized. A fee of 8.37 TL will be charged for transactions up to 8,300 TL, while a deduction of 209.38 TL will be applied for high-value transfers.
The money transfer fees that directly concern millions of bank customers in Turkey have been updated as of 2026. Following the annual inflation data announced by the Turkish Statistical Institute (TÜİK), the commission amounts that banks will charge for EFT and money transfer transactions have been redefined as required by regulation.
With the data shared by TÜİK, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase rate for the year 2025 has been recorded at 30.9%. This data has been reflected directly as a 30.9% increase in transaction tariffs, as it serves as a key indicator used in determining banking service fees.
