About the Swiss Franc and Nigeria
The Swiss Franc (CHF) is the official currency of Switzerland and Liechtenstein, and is considered one of the world's strongest and most stable currencies. Switzerland is home to a growing Nigerian professional community — particularly in banking, pharmaceuticals, international organisations (UN, WHO, WTO are headquartered in Geneva), and academia.
The Swiss Franc typically trades at near-parity with the US Dollar (roughly 1 CHF ≈ 1.05–1.10 USD), making the CHF/NGN rate very close to the USD/NGN rate. The estimated black market CHF rate on this page is derived from the CBN's official CHF/NGN rate, scaled upward to reflect the current dollar to naira parallel market rate.
Best Ways to Send Money from Switzerland to Nigeria
Switzerland is not part of the EU, so Nigerian workers in Switzerland cannot use EU SEPA transfers directly. Here are the best options:
- Wise (formerly TransferWise): The top choice for Switzerland-to-Nigeria transfers. Supports CHF → NGN at the mid-market rate with transparent fees (typically 0.5–1.5%). Transfer arrives in any Nigerian bank account within 1–2 business days.
- Sendwave: Zero transfer fees for Switzerland to Nigeria. Fast delivery to Nigerian banks. Ideal for regular family remittances.
- Remitly: Reliable Switzerland-to-Nigeria corridor with Express (hours) and Economy (3–5 days) options.
- Western Union / MoneyGram: Available at many post offices (Swiss Post) and bank branches in Switzerland. Cash pickup or bank deposit in Nigeria.
- SWIFT Bank Wire: Swiss banks (UBS, Credit Suisse, Raiffeisen, Cantonal Banks) can wire CHF or USD to a Nigerian domiciliary account. Wire fees are typically CHF 10–30. Takes 2–5 business days.
- USDT P2P: Buy USDT via a crypto exchange available in Switzerland (Kraken EU, Binance), send to your recipient's Binance wallet in Nigeria, and they sell USDT on Binance P2P for near black market naira rates.

Does Aboki Forex Trade (Exchange) Currencies?
No, we do not trade any currency pair. Aboki Forex is purely an information platform that provides real-time black market and official CBN exchange rates. To exchange currency, contact a licensed Bureau de Change (BDC), your bank, or a trusted local forex dealer.
Is AbokiFx the same as Aboki Forex?
No, Aboki Forex (abokiforex.app) and AbokiFx are two separate and unaffiliated platforms. We are not connected to AbokiFx in any way. Aboki Forex provides live black market and CBN exchange rates for all major currencies versus the Nigerian Naira.
How can I Exchange Currency in Nigeria?
To exchange foreign currency in Nigeria, you have several options: (1) Visit a licensed Bureau de Change (BDC) — these are regulated by the CBN and found in major cities. (2) Use your commercial bank — they offer official CBN rates for account holders. (3) Use a trusted local forex market dealer — these operate in parallel/black market and typically offer higher rates than banks. Always verify the current rate on Aboki Forex before exchanging to ensure you get a fair deal.
Are the Black Market Rates accurate in all Markets?
Aboki Forex provides average black market rates collected from multiple dealers across major Nigerian cities including Lagos, Abuja, Kano, and Port Harcourt. Because the parallel market is unregulated, actual rates vary by location, dealer, and transaction size. The rates on Aboki Forex are a reliable benchmark, but always confirm the exact rate with your dealer before completing any transaction.
What is the difference between CBN, I&E and Black Market Rates?
The CBN (Central Bank of Nigeria) rate is the official government exchange rate used by commercial banks and regulated financial institutions. The I&E (Investors and Exporters) window was a market-based rate that has now been merged with the official CBN rate following Nigeria's forex unification policy. The Black Market rate (also called the parallel market or street rate) is typically higher than the official rate and reflects actual supply and demand dynamics for foreign currency in Nigeria outside the regulated banking system.
How often are the exchange rates updated on Aboki Forex?
Black market exchange rates on Aboki Forex are updated every hour throughout the trading day. The rates reflect real-time data collected from parallel market dealers across Nigeria. CBN official rates are updated daily, typically after the Central Bank of Nigeria publishes its official rates each business day.
What is the best way to send money from the USA to Nigeria?
The best way to send money from the USA to Nigeria depends on the amount: Sendwave charges zero fees for everyday transfers, Wise gives the best exchange rate on larger amounts, and USDT P2P delivers naira closest to the black market rate. Note that Zelle, Cash App, and Venmo cannot send money to Nigeria. See our full guide on how to send money from the USA to Nigeria, and check the live dollar to naira black market rate before you send.
Why is the black market dollar to naira rate higher than the official CBN rate?
The black market dollar to naira rate is higher than the official CBN rate because of the gap between foreign currency supply and demand in Nigeria. The Central Bank of Nigeria controls access to dollars at the official rate, limiting who can buy forex through official channels. Businesses and individuals who cannot access dollars through banks must turn to the parallel market, where higher demand relative to supply drives up the exchange rate.
