Celgene Corporation SWIFT/BIC code

SWIFT/BIC code of Celgene Corporation

CELGUS3S and CELGUS3SXXX are two ways of writing the same bank identifier, and both lead to Celgene Corporation in Summit,nj. A SWIFT code shows every bank in the chain exactly which bank should receive the money. You will need it mainly when dealing with payments that cross a border or a currency.

Further down you will find the practical questions: money coming in from abroad, sending money abroad and how to check the code before you confirm a payment. Keep in mind that the SWIFT code only identifies the bank, not the account: the IBAN or account number does that part.

Why Celgene Corporation has an 8- and an 11-character code

Each SWIFT/BIC code has the same eight core characters: four letters for the bank, two letters for the country and a two-character location code. Combined, those parts form CELGUS3S – the version you usually see online.

XXX at the end of CELGUS3SXXX is not a placeholder or a mistake: it indicates the main office of Celgene Corporation. Some forms insist on 11 characters, and then you can add XXX behind CELGUS3S.

Type the code in one piece, in upper case and without spaces, exactly as shown here. Copying the code is safer than typing it by hand.

Protect yourself against fake payment requests

Fraudsters regularly use payment requests with new bank details. The fact that CELGUS3S exists does not mean that a request mentioning it is legitimate; criminals use the codes of real banks too.

Never trust contact details in the same message that contains the new account. Urgency and requests to keep it quiet are red flags – a real supplier can wait a day. Acted too fast? Contact the bank you paid from without delay and have them try to recall the payment.

Recipients are targeted too: a classic trick is an overpayment followed by a request to send back the difference abroad. A payment confirmation from the sender is no proof – check your own account.

US Dollar (USD) and conversion costs

Most accounts at Celgene Corporation are typically held in USD, the national currency of United States. A payment in a foreign currency will be exchanged into USD, and whoever converts it chooses the rate. You rarely see a separate line for that conversion; it is built into the rate.

Where the conversion happens affects the final amount, as rates and margins differ per bank. Compare how much USD the recipient gets with several services.

The rate for USD fluctuates constantly, so the amount you see is usually only valid for a short time. If you pay regularly, small differences in the rate make a real difference over time.

Tracking a transfer to or from Celgene Corporation

There is no fixed answer for international payments: many land within a day. Transfers sent after the cut-off time or just before weekends and holidays often start the next business day. Compliance checks by one of the banks can also add some delay, even when all details are correct.

When a payment takes longer than expected, ask your bank for the tracking status or the UETR so they can trace it along the chain. Money transfer services usually show a status online showing how far the money has got.

Only the sending bank is able to start an official trace. As a recipient, you can check your account to see a partial amount, since fees may have been deducted.

Getting paid from abroad into a Celgene Corporation account

For a transfer from abroad at Celgene Corporation, the person paying you needs not just the BIC. That means: your full name exactly as it appears on the account, your IBAN or account number, the BIC CELGUS3SXXX and usually your postal address.

Some banks also ask for the bank’s address. A typo in the IBAN is harder to fix than it looks.

What lands in your account can be lower than what was sent. Intermediary banks may deduct a fee, Celgene Corporation may charge for incoming payments, and when currencies differ, a markup on the rate comes on top. Agree with the sender who pays which costs before the money is sent.

Head office or branch code at Celgene Corporation?

We have 2 SWIFT/BIC codes for Celgene Corporation in 1 places. Besides the head office code CELGUS3SXXX, you will find codes for branches, departments or specific services.

If nobody asks you for a branch code, go with CELGUS3SXXX or its short form CELGUS3S. Just use a branch code when your contact explicitly asks for it, for example on an invoice or in their bank details.

When in doubt, check with the recipient for the exact BIC in their bank details. Branch codes can change when banks reorganise, so a code from an old document is not always valid.

What a transfer from Celgene Corporation abroad really costs

When you send money to another country from Celgene Corporation, the fee you see is only part of the cost. There is the fee for the transfer itself, sometimes fees charged by intermediary banks in between and, most importantly, the margin on the exchange rate if the currency changes.

Banks do not show their exchange rate markup separately. A simple test: set the bank’s rate against the mid-market rate and work out the difference on your amount.

For a lot of routes, a transfer service turns out to be cheaper than a traditional bank transfer. GoldexPay compares what recipients receive across services, so you can pick the cheapest route. Using a transfer service does not require leaving Celgene Corporation.

About this information

We gather bank codes from public sources and check them from time to time. It can happen that information on this page is out of date. The figures we show reflect our own data and not on information from Celgene Corporation itself.

How to check CELGUS3S before you pay

The most reliable place for the right code remains paperwork issued by the bank. When the code you were given differs from CELGUS3S or CELGUS3SXXX, stop and ask.

Errors in the BIC tend to be annoying rather than disastrous. Do not forget the IBAN: an error there can be harder to undo than a wrong BIC.

Many banking apps validate the structure of IBANs and sometimes look up the BIC automatically, but that does not prove the account belongs to the right person. Where available, a name check on the recipient adds extra certainty. For a first payment, many people send a small test amount and wait for confirmation.
