Hi, what is the opinion about depending on our QATAR bank account to do online interbank transfer. Normally what is the transfer charge? Whether banks in Qatar are offering good exchange rates comparing to the Money Exchange centers.

Exactly. Best option is to go for money exchanges. why waste your hard earned money? I regularly send money to my NRI account through exchange only, and gets receipt SMS within an hour or so.

Preferably not to do it as charges are high compared to the money xchangers and secondly there is an additional charge also levied as 'corresponding bank charges' and finally undue delay which cannot be followed up and nobody takes responsibility. The best is the local and authorised xchanges which have even options of instant remittance 24x7 for a marginal rate difference.

Bank to Bank transfer, to my knowledge, is very safe. For the transfer charges and exchange rates, you need to contact the banks itself as this may vary from bank to bank.
