Errors in the SWIFT code are annoying rather than disastrous: often the payment comes back, minus fees. Do not forget the IBAN: a mistake there can be more difficult to undo than a wrong BIC.

A validity check in your banking app only tells you that the IBAN is valid – not that it belongs to the person you mean to pay. More and more banks compare the payee name against the account – do not ignore a mismatch warning. Sending a small amount first is worth it for large sums, even if it costs an extra fee.

An international transfer usually takes one to a few business days, depending on the currency, the route and the banks involved. Bank holidays in either country add a day or more. Compliance checks by one of the banks may also cause some delay, even when all details are correct.

Scams that use SWIFT codes

Scammers regularly send fake invoices containing new bank details sent from what looks like a familiar address. A real SWIFT code tells you nothing about who owns the account.

Do not trust a phone number in the same message that announces the change. Pressure and secrecy tend to be red flags; a genuine business can wait for you to check. If a payment has already gone to a fraudster, contact your bank immediately: the sooner they act, the better the chance of a recall.

Fraud also work the other way: someone sends too much and asks you to return the difference to a new account. A payment confirmation from the sender proves nothing; only your own account shows what has arrived.
