Type the bank’s unique SWIFT code. The SWIFT code refers to the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Transaction code. SWIFT is the registration authority for the assignment of BICs and for the publication of BICs in the BIC Directory.
Type the bank’s unique Bank Identifier Code (BIC). SWIFT developed the BIC to ensure the identification of parties in automated systems was free from errors.

These codes are necessary when transferring money between banks, especially international transfers. This is mandatory if the Use SEPA format check box is selected.
Note: Validation is not necessary for cash instruments with type Bank and country code CH. Since SEPA is not applicable to Japanese cash instruments, you can define another value other than a valid BIC if you select JP (Japan) at Country under the Basics tab.
Type a valid International Bank Account Number (IBAN). This is the international standard to identify bank accounts across countries and was developed to facilitate payments within the European Union. As the IBAN is not widely used outside Europe, it is necessary to use it together with the BIC and SWIFT codes. This is mandatory if the Use SEPA format check box is selected.
