Hi , I wanted to know if there is any fee involved if I receive a payment in my account from a family member abroad. My account is not a business account.

Yes, because the option to receive family/friends 'personal' payments is not available in your country, so you would have to accept it using the goods/services option and pay a fee.

Not only that you have special requirments in receiving payments in your country, check out the link.

You would be better off using moneygram or western union if that is an option in your country and available during covid.
