To transfer to alhabib, goto your bank's branch (in saudi) where you have the local account and ask them that you want to remit to this account, take the swift code, brand name, branch address and account no (of alhabib)

If you have online banking you can do it on your own, charges depends on your bank may be 50 SR or something like that

I think the best way is to send cash tru Enjaz to UBL , and ask someone to collect it there. Wire transfers are normally charged by banks.

You can do it through any remittance center. And if you're interested in better exchange rates, you can also do it through NBP - KSA, located on King Fahad Road, opposite to Kingdom Tower.
