Thin provider panel on Germany → Tajikistan

That cheapest figure comes from the World Bank's mystery-shopping survey: trained researchers pose as customers and obtain real quotes for a standardized $200 transfer, across the 4 banks, money transfer operators, post offices and mobile-money providers RPW tracks on this corridor. It is a snapshot from that survey quarter, not a live guarantee -- confirm the current rate directly with the provider before sending.

Costs on this route have stayed essentially flat, moving 0.04 percentage points over the tracked period, unusual stability against the broader downward trend seen on most corridors. Across 39 quarters on record, average cost ranged 3.0%–10.9%, with 3 quarters at or under the UN 3% target. It currently meets the UN SDG 10.c 3% target.
