The way the Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. SWIFT/BIC is built up

A SWIFT/BIC code has 8 or 11 characters. Each part has a fixed meaning:

4 letters that identify the bank.

2 letters for the country (ISO 3166).
S1 Location code
2 characters for the city or region of the head office.
XXX Branch code
3 characters for a specific branch. XXX means the head office.

Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. SWIFT code: SECTSKS1

If an invoice shows SECTSKS1 or SECTSKS1XXX, it is the same address for Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. in Slovakia. A BIC has a single purpose: it makes sure that a cross-border transfer reaches the right bank. It comes up mostly when dealing with transfers between countries or a currency.

On this page you can read what the code is put together, when you need it and what else a transfer to or from Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. requires. Remember that the SWIFT code just identifies the bank, not the person: the IBAN or account number takes care of that.

What the XXX in SECTSKS1XXX means

The layout of a BIC is always the same: a bank code of four letters, two for the country and a two-character location code. That gives you SECTSKS1.

The full version has three more characters that identify a branch or department. When those three characters are XXX, the code points to the head office, which is why SECTSKS1XXX and SECTSKS1 lead to the same place.

Enter the code as one block, in capitals and without spaces. Look out for O versus 0 and I versus 1, a common source of typos.

Paying someone abroad from your Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. account

An international bank payment can cost more than the fee suggests. You pay the transfer fee, possibly charges from correspondent banks in between and, above all, the exchange rate markup when the money is converted.

Banks rarely show their exchange rate markup separately. Check the rate you are offered with the mid-market rate.

For a lot of currency pairs, a specialist provider is cheaper than a bank. On GoldexPay you can compare the amount that arrives across services, so you can pick the cheapest route. Using a transfer service does not require closing your account at Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. – you pay the provider from your own account.

Euro transfers to Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o.: is a BIC needed?

Slovakia is part of the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA), the zone for standardised euro payments. For a regular euro transfer within SEPA, you normally only need the IBAN; many banks no longer ask for the BIC.

Outside the euro and from non-SEPA countries, SECTSKS1XXX or SECTSKS1 remains required. If a payment form asks for the BIC regardless, adding SECTSKS1 is fine.

Instant euro transfers have become widely available across SEPA. Provided the payment stays in euros, a SEPA transfer tends to be cheap; costs rise once a conversion is involved.

Tracking a transfer to or from Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o.

There is no fixed delivery time for international payments: some arrive the same day or the next, others take several business days. Bank holidays in the sending or receiving country can add a day or more, since banks do not process on those days. Extra checks on larger or unusual payments may also cause some delay, regardless of the details.

If the money seems delayed, ask the sending bank about the tracking status or the UETR; with that reference banks can see where the payment is. Money transfer services often show a status online so you can see how far the money is.

Only the sending bank can request a trace or a recall – the recipient’s bank often cannot see a payment that has not arrived. Ask the sender for the payment receipt including the reference.

What to give a sender who pays you at Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o.

If you are waiting for money from abroad, send the payer all details at once. In practice that means: your full name exactly as it appears on the account, your IBAN or account number, the BIC SECTSKS1XXX (or SECTSKS1) and sometimes your postal address.

Their bank might request the address of your bank; the head office in Trnava is usually fine. A typo in your account number can be more trouble than it looks.

Money from abroad will not always arrive in full. Intermediary banks may deduct a fee, Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. may charge for incoming payments, and when currencies differ, a markup on the rate comes on top. For business payments, you can state how the fees are split to avoid a shortfall.

About this information

The details on this page are taken from public sources. Even so, banks merge, rename themselves or change codes and our data may lag behind. Figures such as the number of codes are from our directory and may differ from what Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. publishes.

Treat this page as a starting point, not as the last word: the recipient’s bank details come first. GoldexPay is independent of Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o., we only compare transfer services. Spotted an error? Tell us through the contact page and we will look into it.

Watch out for payment fraud

Stay alert if someone unexpectedly asks you to send money to a different account abroad. That SECTSKS1 is a real code does not mean that the account is genuine; criminals use the codes of real banks too.

Check changed payment details via a separate channel like a call to a number from an earlier contract. Be suspicious of time pressure, odd spelling or an email address that differs by one letter. Acted too fast? Call the bank you paid from straight away and have them start a recall and report the fraud.

Recipients are targeted too: one known trick is an overpayment followed by a request to refund the difference abroad. A screenshot of a transfer proves nothing; only your own account shows what has arrived.

Sending EUR to Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o.

The currency in Slovakia is the Euro (EUR). A payment in a foreign currency will be converted into EUR on its way to Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o.. Every conversion costs the amount, even when no fee is shown.

Which bank converts the money matters, because each party uses its own rate. Check how much EUR the recipient gets via different services.

Rates for EUR change all the time – some services let you fix a rate in advance. For regular payments, a slightly better rate add up over time.

Head office or branch code at Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o.?

Having 4 codes in 3 locations, Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. is one of the banks that register individual codes for parts of the organisation. The head office code remains SECTSKS1XXX.

Usually there is no need to look up a branch: payments addressed to SECTSKS1XXX are routed within Samsung Electronics Lcd Slovakia S.r.o. correctly. If you have been given a specific code, stick to it rather than replacing it with the head office code.

Not sure which code to use? Check with the recipient. Codes for branches are more likely to change than SECTSKS1XXX.

Is SECTSKS1 still correct? How to check

The safest source for the BIC is the bank details provided by the recipient: an invoice, a bank statement or their online banking. Check it with SECTSKS1 on this page and ask if anything does not match.

With a wrong code, the transfer might be delayed, bounce back or cost extra. Do not forget the account number: an error there can be harder to correct than a wrong code.

An automatic check by your bank only tells you that the IBAN exists – not that it belongs to the person you mean to pay. Where available, a payee name check on the recipient adds extra certainty. For a first payment, many people start with a small test amount before sending the rest.
