What is your banks country? Also, if you are EU resident, I can advice you fly to Lativa let's say and open few saving accounts there, and explain on interview that you'll have some large transfers coming.

Funnily enough, my primary account is in Latvia. This is where I hope to send the funds. I have accounts in Ireland, Malta, Germany, Australia, Canada, and China as well. (Probably others I've forgotten about).

From prior experience, transferring anything above around 10,000 has caused problems for me in the past. Of course breaking up the transaction into smaller pieces if probably safer for at least a few reasons, but I also don't want to be waiting a half year either.

I've considered opening an account in Luxembourg or the BVI, but need to do a little research on that. That's not for the sake of trying to avoid taxes however. I'm not bent on spending time in prison.

In such situations it's a good idea to start from speaking with your banks manager(s), explain situation to them - if this money is not illegal, I don't see a reason why not speak with the bankers
