The SWIFT code contains everything you need to know to pinpoint an exact bank, which is obviously useful when sending information or money between banks in different countries. If you’re sending or receiving an international money transfer, you need the correct SWIFT/BIC for the recipient bank.
A SWIFT code is 8-11 characters, formatted like this: AAAABBCCDDD.²
AAAA: Bank code
BB: Country code
CC: Location code
DDD: Optional branch code
What’s the difference between a SWIFT code, a BIC, an IBAN and a routing number?
SWIFT codes are used internationally to identify specific banks. An IBAN (International Bank Account Number) is also used internationally, but is only used in the EU, Norway, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Hungary, and identifies an individual bank account, not the bank as a whole. Routing numbers are similar to SWIFT/BIC codes in that they identify banks, but they’re only used in the US.
