*You can’t receive payments from outside Romania with your domestic account details, but you can use your GBP account details to receive international Swift payments.
Payments from inside Romania
Share your RON details (bank code and account number) with the person who wants to pay you.
The sender’s bank will give them an estimate when they set up the payment — for any details about how long it takes, reach out to your sender so they can ask their bank.
Payments from outside Romania
If your payer isn't able to make a domestic transfer, you can use your RON details to receive Swift payments.
Payments by Swift to GBP details
You can’t receive RON payments from outside Romania with your domestic account details, but you can receive RON to your GBP account details. It takes up to 5 working days to receive RON by Swift.
Just let the sender know that you want to receive RON into your GBP details so you can avoid conversion fees. Some banks might recognise the GBP IBAN and want to convert RON to GBP, but this isn't necessary.
If their bank asks them the country of the recipient’s (your) bank, tell them to select the United Kingdom.
We don’t charge any additional fees to receive international payments in RON, but correspondent banks might apply their own fees.
