Top 50 highest remittance receiving countries in the world in 2023
The biggest receivers of remittances in the world included India, Mexico, and China in 2023, with each country receiving several billions worth of dollars. This is according to a database that tries to model money sent internationally from one party to another. Remittances typically refer to money sent from migrant workers back home to family and friends, although there are other forms of this. Remittances can, for example, include pensioners who have a second home in a foreign country. Nevertheless, Asia Pacific is often referred to as the main receiver of remittances.
