The Maldives Monetary Authority (MMA) will conduct a survey tomorrow (April 10, 2026) across various areas of Greater Malé regarding the funds sent abroad by expatriates working in the Maldives.
This survey is specifically targeted at expatriate workers living in the country. It is being conducted to gather essential data required for the compilation of Balance of Payments statistics.
The information collected through this survey will include the methods used by expatriate workers to send money, the frequency of their remittances, and the average amounts sent.
The MMA encourages all expatriate workers to participate in this survey.
The Authority assures that no personal information, such as names, passport numbers, or work permit details, will be collected. Furthermore, the MMA guarantees that the confidentiality of all information gathered during the survey will be strictly maintained.
