A SWIFT code — sometimes also called a SWIFT number — is a standard format for Business Identifier Codes (BIC). Banks and financial institutions use them to identify themselves globally. It says who and where they are — a sort of international bank code or ID. These codes are used when transferring money between banks, particularly for international money transfers or SEPA payments. Banks also use these codes to exchange messages between each other.

A SWIFT/BIC is an 8-11 character code that identifies your country, city, bank, and branch. Bank code A-Z: 4 letters representing the bank.

Location code 0-9 A-Z: 2 characters made up of letters or numbers. It says where that bank&#x27;s head office is. Branch Code 0-9 A-Z: 3 digits specifying a particular branch. &#x27;XXX&#x27; represents the bank&#x27;s head office.
