SWIFT/BIC codes

What Is a SWIFT/BIC Code?

A SWIFT code — sometimes also called a BIC number — is a standard format for Business Identifier Codes (BIC). It's used to identify banks and financial institutions 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, in particular for international wire transfers or SEPA payments. Banks also use these codes to exchange messages between each other.
