8-character vs. 11-character BICs
A BIC consists of four parts: a 4-character bank code, a 2-character country code, a 2-character location code, and an optional 3-character branch code. An 8-character BIC omits the branch code and refers to the institution's head office — these are sometimes written with "XXX" appended to make them 11 characters, but both forms are equivalent. An 11-character BIC includes a specific branch code and routes the transfer to a particular branch or processing centre. When in doubt, use the 8-character BIC; most banks accept it for standard SEPA and international transfers. Learn more on the IBAN & BIC guide.
