The amount of money you can travel with largely depends on various factors, including your destination, the purpose of your trip, and the local regulations and laws in place. Different countries have different regulations regarding the amount of money you can bring in or take out. Some countries have strict limits on the amount of currency you can carry, while others may have no restrictions. It's essential to research the specific rules of the country you are visiting or transiting through.

In the United States there is no restriction on how much money you can carry domestically or internationally. However, if you plan to travel with over $10,000 in cash internationally you must file a “FinCEN Form 105” through the U.S. Customs and Border Control Agency, whether you are entering or departing the U.S. If you are traveling domestically, you do not need to file this form for any amount of money that you carry.

If members of one family household entering the U.S. are carrying more than $10,000 in currency combined, they must declare this on their incoming Customs Declaration form. This is in addition to the FinCEN Form 105 that each individual carrying over $10,000 must also complete.

Remember, carrying large sums of cash can be risky due to the potential for theft or loss. Consider keeping the bulk of your money in a secure location, such as a hotel safe, and carry only the amount you need for daily expenses. If you plan to disperse money to friends or family in your arrival destination, money transfer services like Sharemoney provide a convenient alternative, helping you avoid the risk of carrying such large sums.
