About foreign currency transfers

The amount of currency you request is transferred in-kind (e.g., euros to euros) between financial institutions. Transfers are processed as a wire via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT).

While Fidelity doesn't charge a fee for this service, other financial institutions may if they're involved.
