⚠️ 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.
