Dear friends i want to inquire that if transfer my money to pakistan in dollars through foreign bank like HSBC, WILL IT BENEFIT TO PAKISTAN as it is done through Pakistani bank like habib/ubl/MCB in term of foreign remittance?

Please serious comments only

No sir it will not give any benefit until you remit Pak rupees through official channel.

Any bank as HSBC or licensed foreign exchange company are official channels. Now transfer in any currency would give you benifits but if you keep currency mode as $ there some more charges but money value wouldn't change due to inflation

It will benefit Pakistan regardless you use local or International bank. Every Bank is under State Bank when has a branch in Pakistan.

Just to add when you transfer money in $ it will route via USA bank. When I transfer from UAE, bank in US charged $ 35 to 40 and PK bank as well. But transfer in Rs is 0 cost from UAE
