Is a SWIFT code the same for all branches?
Not all bank branches have a SWIFT code. When you can't find the code for your specific branch, you can use the bank’s primary office swift.
Do you need a SWIFT code for international transfers?
When you send money internationally, you need a SWIFT / BIC code. Without it, your bank can't identify the exact bank where the money needs to be sent.
Do I need an IBAN number?
Europe, Middle East and Caribbean countries have adopted the use of International Bank Account Number (IBAN) for international funds transfers. Remember to use IBAN if you are making transfers to countries in these regions.
An IBAN account number format consists of up to 34 alphanumeric characters so it would be wise to check the IBAN number prior to making a transfer.
IBANs don’t replace sort codes or account numbers. They are used to identify individual bank accounts for both incoming and outgoing international money transfer transactions whereas SWIFT code / BIC codes are mainly used to identify a specific bank during an international transaction.
