Bank Orange (LLC) SWIFT/BIC code

PRSBRU2P – the SWIFT/BIC code of Bank Orange (LLC)

PRSBRU2P and PRSBRU2PXXX are two ways of writing the same SWIFT/BIC code, and both point to Bank Orange (LLC) in St. Petersburg. A SWIFT code shows the banks handling a payment exactly which bank is meant to get the money. In practice you mostly see it on international invoices, in your banking app and in the bank details that Bank Orange (LLC) provides.

Further down we go through the practical questions: money coming in from abroad, sending money abroad and how to check a SWIFT code before you hit send. A SWIFT code identifies an institution, never a specific account; the IBAN or account number does that.

Which of the 4 codes of Bank Orange (LLC) do you need?

Bank Orange (LLC) uses 4 different SWIFT/BIC codes across 3 cities. Only one is the head office code; the others belong to branches.

Unless the recipient tells you otherwise, go with PRSBRU2PXXX. Only use a branch code when your contact gives you that exact code, for example on a letter or invoice.

If you are not sure, check with the recipient which code their bank gave them. Codes for branches are more likely to change than PRSBRU2PXXX when a bank merges or closes offices.

Scams that use SWIFT codes

Be alert if someone suddenly wants you to send money to another account. That PRSBRU2P is a real code is no guarantee that the account is legitimate.

Verify new payment details through a different channel, such as a phone number you already know, never via the email that asked for the change. Be suspicious of time pressure, unusual wording or a sender address that is slightly off. Acted too fast? Call your bank straight away and have them start a recall; also report it to the police.

Scams can also target the receiver: someone sends more than agreed and wants you to return the difference to a new account. Wait until the money is actually in your account and check with Bank Orange (LLC) if anything seems off.

Tracking a transfer to or from Bank Orange (LLC)

There is no single delivery time for international payments: some land within a day while others need several business days. Payments made late in the day or just before a weekend or public holiday often go out the next business day. Occasionally a bank wants to know what the payment is for.

When a payment takes longer than expected, contact your bank about the tracking status. Save your transfer receipt until the recipient confirms – you will need it for any trace request.

A missing payment is investigated by the sending bank on the basis of the transfer details. As a recipient, it helps to check your account for a slightly lower amount, since fees may have been deducted.

What the XXX in PRSBRU2PXXX means

The structure of every SWIFT code never changes: a bank code of four letters, two for the country and two for the location, sometimes followed by a branch code. Together, these eight characters make up PRSBRU2P – the version you usually see online.

The full version adds three more characters for a branch or department. When those three characters are XXX, the code points to the head office, which is why PRSBRU2PXXX and PRSBRU2P lead to the same place.

Leave out spaces or dashes when you type PRSBRU2P or PRSBRU2PXXX. Pasting the code is safer than typing it by hand: a typo can point to another bank.

Before you send: check the Bank Orange (LLC) code

The safest source for the BIC is the bank details provided by the recipient. Check that code with PRSBRU2P on this page and ask if anything does not match.

Errors in the SWIFT code tend to be costly more than fatal: often the payment comes back, minus fees. Do not forget the IBAN: an error there can be harder to undo than a wrong BIC.

An automatic check in your banking app merely tells you that the code exists. Where available, a payee name check before sending adds extra certainty. Sending a small amount first can be a sensible step for large sums, even if it costs an extra fee.

Sending money abroad from Bank Orange (LLC)

The price of an international transfer is made up of more than one component. You pay the fee for the transfer itself, sometimes fees charged by intermediary banks along the way and, most importantly, the margin on the exchange rate if the currency changes.

Banks do not list the margin on the rate as a cost – you only notice it if you compare. An easy check: put the bank’s rate next to the mid-market rate for the same moment and look at the difference.

For many currency pairs, a specialist provider is cheaper than a bank. GoldexPay compares the amount that arrives with different services. Using a transfer service does not require leaving Bank Orange (LLC).

Getting paid from abroad into a Bank Orange (LLC) account

Someone abroad who wants to pay you will ask for several details about your account. That means: your name exactly as it appears on the account, your IBAN or account number, the SWIFT/BIC code PRSBRU2PXXX and, often, your address.

You can include Bank Orange (LLC) and St. Petersburg as well, since some forms ask for it. A typo in the IBAN can be more trouble than you might think; copy them from your banking app rather than typing.

Money from abroad will not always land in full. Intermediary banks may deduct a fee, and if the currency changes, an exchange rate margin comes on top. Agree with the sender who pays which costs before the money is sent.
