SWIFT code FAQ
Is a SWIFT code the same as a BIC?
Yes — BIC (Bank Identifier Code) is the ISO 9362 standard name and SWIFT code is the common name. Both refer to the 8 or 11 character bank identifier.
What does 'XXX' at the end of a SWIFT code mean?
It identifies the bank's head office rather than a specific branch. An 8-character code without a branch code also refers to the head office.
