What is a BIC code?

A SWIFT code - or SWIFT number is a standard format to uniquely identify banks, non-financial, and financial institutions across the world. The SWIFT code is a standard format for Business Identifier Codes (BIC).

If you transmit money internationally you almost always need to use a SWIFT code, as it’s the way banks, financial institutions and money transfer services identify where to send money on a global scale. You can think of a SWIFT/BIC code a bit like an international postal code. Your bank can use the SWIFT code to find another bank on the opposite side of the world. Like sending post to an incorrect ZIP code means it might go missing, the same goes for your money and the wrong SWIFT code.
