⚠️ Critical Money Transfer Warning (YMYL)

Verify the BIC with your beneficiary bank: Database records are informational only. swiftbic.org is not affiliated with SWIFT. Always verify the SWIFT/BIC code and name of the beneficiary with the receiving bank or official registration records before initiating any international wire transfer.

Common Mistakes: Do not confuse the SWIFT/BIC code (identifies the bank branch) with the IBAN (identifies the specific bank account). Using an incorrect branch suffix or a deactivated code can result in payments being returned, delayed, or subject to significant administrative return fees.

Do I need an IBAN as well as DHBNNL2RCOL?

SWIFT codes like DHBNNL2RCOL identify the bank institution, while IBANs (ISO 13616) identify the individual customer account. Within SEPA (ECB SEPA), IBANs are sufficient for routing; outside SEPA, both SWIFT BIC and account number are typically required.

What happens if I use the wrong SWIFT/BIC code?

Using an incorrect code can delay transfers, cause payment returns, or route funds to an incorrect institution. Correspondent banks along the route may charge return processing fees, and currency conversion losses may occur. Always verify details with the beneficiary.

How long does a payment using DHBNNL2RCOL take to arrive?

International SWIFT wires typically settle within 1 to 5 business days, depending on time zones, clearing cut-offs, correspondent hops (BIS CPMI), and compliance checks.

Why does my payment need an intermediary or correspondent bank?

Is DHBNNL2RCOL the same as a domestic clearing code in Netherlands?

No. DHBNNL2RCOL is an international ISO 9362 SWIFT BIC. Domestic transfers in Netherlands clear through undefined under [object Object] oversight (primary currency: EUR). SWIFT BICs route cross-border transactions.
