How To Find The SWIFT Code or BIC Code For My Bank?

If you wish to make an international wire transfer from one bank to another, you will need the SWIFT Code (also called the BIC Code) for the recipient bank. Here are some easy ways using which you can find the SWIFT/BIC Code for your bank:

  • By calling your bank to ask for their SWIFT Code.
  • By logging in to their mobile app or website.
  • By checking the FAQs or wire transfer section of your bank's website.
  • By check the hard copy of your bank account statement.
  • By searching online registries of SWIFT/BIC codes.
  • By using RemitFinder's SWIFT/BIC Code registry.

You can use your bank to send and receive funds internationally, there are many other easy ways to do so. Banks often charge high fees and provide low exchange rates for international wire transfers. A better option is to use international money transfer companies to get the best exchange rates and pay low transfer fees.






What Is The Format Of A SWIFT Code or BIC Code?

SWIFT and BIC Codes comply with the 9362:2014 standard that defines their format. As per this specification, a SWIFT or BIC code is a unique 8-character combination (or 11-character when it also contains a bank branch code).

Each set of these 8 or 11 characters provide useful information about the organizations involved in an international wire transfer. The constituent characters in SWIFT and BIC Codes follow a certain specified order in their arrangement and have the following important sub-parts:

  • The first 4 characters (only letters) represent the bank or financial organization identification code.
  • The next 2 characters (only letters) capture the ISO2 country reference code where the bank is located.
  • The next 2 characters (letters & numbers) stand for the area/city code where the bank or the financial organization is located.
  • The last 3 characters (numbers & letters) are reserved for an optional reference code that specifies the exact division, branch, office or administration unit of the concerned financial institution.

SWIFT or BIC Codes are 8 or 11 character long and contain information about the bank, country, area/city and branch code for the particular financial institution.

Here is a diagram that captures the structure of a SWIFT or BIC Code in a pictorial format.
