What is a SWIFT code?

A SWIFT/BIC code is a standard format to uniquely identify banks and financial institutions globally. The SWIFT code is a standard format for BIC - Business Identifier Codes.

If you send money internationally you nearly always need to use a BIC code, as it’s the way banks and money transfer services identify where to send money on a global scale. You can think of a SWIFT/BIC code a bit like a ZIP/postal code. Your bank uses the code to send the money to the right bank in another country. Just like sending mail to an incorrect ZIP code means it could get lost, the same goes for your money and an incorrect SWIFT code.

What does a SWIFT look like?

A SWIFT code is either 8 or 11 characters in length:

AAAA BB CC DDD
