Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. SWIFT code: BGIAJPJT
Whether a recipient gives you BGIAJPJT or BGIAJPJTXXX, it is the identical address for Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. in Japan. A BIC does one job: it makes sure that money from abroad ends up at the right bank. In daily life you usually come across it on invoices from abroad, in payment forms and on the account details of Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. customers.
Further down we go through the practical questions: receiving money at Blackrock Japan Co., LTD., paying someone in another country and how to check the code before you hit send. The SWIFT code alone cannot identify an individual account holder; that is what the account number or IBAN .
How to check BGIAJPJT before you pay
Ask the recipient to send you the account details straight from their banking app. If the code you have does not match BGIAJPJT or BGIAJPJTXXX, do not guess: check with the recipient or with Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. directly.
Errors in the SWIFT code tend to be costly more than fatal – usually the money comes back, minus fees and time lost. Remember the account number: a mistake there is more difficult to correct than a wrong code.
Many banking apps check the format of an IBAN, but that does not prove the account belongs to the right person. More and more banks check the name with the account before you confirm. When you pay someone new, some people start with a small amount first before sending the rest.
Where our SWIFT data comes from
The directory on GoldexPay draws on public sources. Institutions reorganise, close branches and retire codes, and a directory never catches every change immediately. Counts and locations are from our directory and may differ from what Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. publishes.
Treat our data as a starting point, rather than as the final word – the bank details from the recipient are leading. GoldexPay is a comparison service for money transfers and not part of Blackrock Japan Co., LTD.. Should you notice a mistake, we welcome a message.
Scams that use SWIFT codes
Criminals regularly use payment requests containing new bank details. A valid SWIFT code says nothing about who owns the account – scammers simply use real codes.
Never rely on a phone number in the same message that announces the change. Urgency and requests to keep it quiet tend to be warning signs. When money has already gone to the wrong account, contact your bank immediately: the sooner they act, the better the chance of a recall.
Scams also work the other way: someone claims to have sent more than agreed and asks you to refund the difference to a new account. Wait until the money has really arrived.
Paying into Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. in JPY
The national currency in Japan is the Japanese Yen (JPY). Money sent in a different currency will be converted into JPY. Each conversion costs the amount.
Who does the conversion affects how much arrives, as rates and margins differ per bank. Check how much JPY arrives via several providers.
Exchange rates change during the day – some services let you fix a rate in advance. On larger amounts, a seemingly small difference in the rate can be worth more than the fee.
Receiving money from abroad at Blackrock Japan Co., LTD.
Someone abroad who wants to pay you will ask for several details about your account – incomplete details often cause delays. What they need is: your name, account number or IBAN, BGIAJPJTXXX and in many cases your postal address.
You can include the bank name and its city too, because some payment forms have separate fields for them. Check the details before you send them – a sender rarely spots a mistake in someone else’s details.
What lands in your account can be less than what was sent. Charges on incoming payments vary from bank to bank. On invoices, it is common to state who bears the costs.
International transfers from Blackrock Japan Co., LTD.: the real cost
What you pay for a payment abroad is made up of several parts – not just the fee on your screen. On top of a fixed fee, banks in between can deduct a fee, and when currencies are converted the bank often uses a rate that is less favourable than the actual market rate.
That exchange rate margin tends to be the largest item, and it is easy to miss. Compare their rate against the mid-market rate, the midpoint between buy and sell rates you see on financial sites.
Money transfer services frequently offer rates closer to the mid-market rate with clearer fees. GoldexPay lists these services side by side, showing the amount the recipient gets before you commit. You can always use your account at Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. to fund the transfer, while a cheaper service handles the conversion.
When will the money arrive at Blackrock Japan Co., LTD.?
An international transfer usually needs one to a few business days, depending on the currency, the route and the banks involved. Payments made late in the day or on a weekend or public holiday often start the next business day. Compliance checks by one of the banks may also add some delay.
When a payment takes longer than expected, ask your bank for the status and the transaction reference so they can trace it along the chain. Keep your transfer receipt until the money has arrived – you will need it for any trace request.
The bank that sent the money is able to request a trace or a recall. As a recipient, you can check your statements to see a partial amount.
Which of the 2 codes of Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. do you need?
Having 2 codes in 1 locations, Blackrock Japan Co., LTD. is one of the banks that register individual codes for branches. The head office code is BGIAJPJTXXX.
For the vast majority of incoming transfers, the head office code BGIAJPJTXXX is what you need. When you receive a branch code, use it as it is rather than swapping it with the head office code.
When in doubt, ask the person you are paying for the exact BIC in their bank details. Codes can change over time, so do not rely on old paperwork.
What the XXX in BGIAJPJTXXX means
The layout of every SWIFT code is always the same: a bank code of four letters, a two-letter country code and a two-character location code, plus an optional branch code. In this case, that core is BGIAJPJT.
The full version adds three more characters for a branch or department. If the last three are XXX, the code points to the head office, which is why BGIAJPJTXXX and BGIAJPJT lead to the same place.
Enter the code in one piece, in upper case and without spaces. Watch for O versus 0 and I versus 1.
