A SWIFT code is an International bank code which consists of 8 or 11 characters that identify particular banks worldwide. It’s also known as a Bank Identifier Code (BIC). Commercial Banks uses SWIFT codes to send money to overseas banks.
You’ll need to give this code to anyone sending money to you from overseas. The code is made up of letters and numbers as follows:
- ⇒First 4 characters – bank code (only letters)
- ⇒Next 2 characters – ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (only letters)
- ⇒Next 2 characters – location code (letters and digits) (passive participant will have “1” in the second character)
In some cases where you see more characters – that becomes the branch code. But its optional.
But you should know that Bank Sort Code is an identification of both the bank and the branch where the account is held. In some cases, the first digit of the sort code identifies the bank itself and in other cases, the first two digits identify the bank.
The registrations of Swift Codes are handled by Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) and their headquarters is located in La Hulpe, Belgium. SWIFT is the registered trademarks of S.W.I.F.T. SCRL with a registered address at Avenue Adèle 1, B-1310 La Hulpe, Belgium.
