I. Denmark’s Policy Shift Brings Renewed Attention to Personal Foreign Exchange

In Q1 2025, the Danish Ministry of Finance introduced new tariffs on imports from non-EU countries and signaled tighter controls over cross-border currency exchange. While Italy remains unaffected as an EU member, the broader trend of increased oversight has prompted many residents in Denmark to rethink their remittance options, especially when sending money to Italy.

Moreover, foreign exchange declaration limits in parts of the EU have added complexity to personal transfers, making users lean toward more transparent, app-based, and regulation-friendly platforms.

II. TransferWise (Wise) Works—But Not for Everyone

Wise is well-known for offering mid-market rates and ease of use, but it’s not always the most optimized solution:

• Variable fees depending on currencies and amounts;

• No guaranteed exchange rate lock—rates may change during processing;

•  Limited flexibility in local payout options, especially for smaller banks or newer fintech channels in Italy.

For example, sending DKK to EUR via Wise typically costs 0.41%–0.61%, and the recipient amount may vary due to floating rates during processing.
