Sort code FAQ

Is a sort code unique to one branch?

Sort codes are allocated per institution and branch. Some banks also use universal codes that apply bank-wide.

Do I need an IBAN for UK payments?

Domestic UK payments use sort code plus account number. For cross-border payments an IBAN is recommended — the UK IBAN embeds the sort code.
