There are a few points to note.

1 is the transfer time. ICBC receives remittance instructions from 2: 00 to 22: 30 from Monday to Friday, and handles overseas remittance from 9: 00 to 16: 00 from Monday to Friday. Therefore, if the instructions are submitted within the above time, the transfer processing will be faster. If you choose to send remittance instructions on weekends, there may be a delay.
