Hi Bassem,

wish you Happy new year and thanks alot mate for such a great help.

yes i figure out the town on google earth but i cant see CITI bank there, thanks for confirmation.

is it possible to get their mailing address, i got one and i write to them but i didnt receive any response...

may be i write to incorrect person.
if you can find web address or mail address, this would be great help to me...

I want to know money transfer process...
i hope there shouldnt be any issue if we have CITI bank in both country... so, this would be transfer in same bank in different country...
just want to make sure, how much amount (foreign currency account)i have to keep in bank account MINIMUM !!!

Hi
OK i'll verify but if it is not possible with Citibank you can see Western Union or AL BARAKA BANK. you can find their offices in your home country

thank you

hi Bassem,

this is the response i received from citi bank tunisia.

First of all, we would like to thank you for the interest that you have for Citi Tunisia. Unfortunately, we are not specialized in retail banking but more into multinationals, large companies and financial institutions as we are a corporate and investment bank in Tunisia.

You can contact any other local bank here in Tunisia and they will be happy to help you,

so, i think i have to try ALBARAKA Bank
thank you for giving me ALBARAKA bank
