How to read SWIFT Code/BIC Code Format?
The SWIFT or BIC code is usually 8 or 11 characters: - e.g. CITIUS3PPBX (Sample Swift Code- Bank of CITIBANK N.A., New York)
Where as,
First 4 letters represents Institution Code or bank code: CITI US3PPBX
Next 2 letters represents ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code: CITI US 3PPBX
Next 2 letters or digits represents location code: CITIUS 3P PBX
location code:
If second character is �0": Then it is a test BIC as opposed to a BIC used on the live network.
If second character is �1": Then it denotes a passive participant in the SWIFT network
If second character is �2": Then it indicates a reverse billing BIC, where the recipient pays for the message as opposed to the more usual mode whereby the sender pays for the message.
