What is a SWIFT/BIC Code?

A SWIFT code is an 8 to 11-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a bank or financial institution in international transactions. It is assigned by the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), a Belgium-based network established in 1973 and used by over 11,000 banks in 200+ countries. BIC (Bank Identifier Code, ISO 9362) is simply the formal name for the same code — every SWIFT code is a BIC, and every BIC used for SWIFT messaging is a SWIFT code.
