Business persons and individuals making frequent international money transfers must use bank SWIFT codes for a secured transaction. This unique code helps transfer your funds swiftly and accurately. If you are a Bank of India customer, it is crucial to understand the SWIFT code system, its usage, and its importance before making outward remittances.

What is the SWIFT Code of the Bank of India?

A SWIFT code or SWIFT number is the standard format for BIC (Business Identifier Codes). This number is a unique ID that represents a particular bank globally. It is a type of international bank ID or code that helps identify the bank and its location.

The Bank of India SWIFT code is used while transferring funds from one bank to the other, especially for SEPA payments or international money transfers. SWIFT Codes also allow banks to send and receive messages across other branches or banks. 

Importance of Swift Code for Bank of India

The main significance of BOI SWIFT Code is to enable secured and seamless cross-border transactions. It is essential to enter the correct SWIFT code while sending or receiving payments from overseas. This helps route the money to the right person without any hassles. 

Therefore, if you intend to make overseas fund transfers without a proper SWIFT code, it can misdirect the transaction, causing financial loss and inconveniences.

Is Swift Code Same for All Branches of Bank of India?

Each bank has a unique SWIFT Code that distinguishes it from the others. It helps identify the banks properly without creating any confusion while transferring funds. It is an alphabetic representation of the bank name and its branches in unique abbreviated codes.

BOI Swift Code Structure & Format

There is a standardised format for Bank of India SWIFT code that comprises eleven alphabet characters, each representing different codes. Checkout the breakdown of the BOI SWIFT code components below:

  • The first four characters represent bank code. For BOI the bank code is “BKID”.
  • Next two characters represent the country code. In this case, it is India. So, the code is "IN".
  • The following two alphabets represent the location code, which is "BB".
  • The last three alphabets represent the branch code which keeps on changing.

Example of BOI Swift Code

The first 4 letters in a Bank of India SWIFT code represent the Institution code: BKID

The next two letters represent the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code: IN

The next two letters denote the location code: BB

In case the second character of the BOI SWIFT code is "0", then it is not a live BIC, but a test BIC.

In case the second character of a SWIFT code is “1”, it represents that the bank has passive participation in the SWIFT network.

A reverse billing BIC is when the second character is “2”.

The final three letters or digits represent the branch code.

If you find an 8-digit SWIFT code, assume it for the SWIFT code of the primary office.

Here are some of the crucial uses of BOI SWIFT Codes:

  • It helps receive or send international wire transfers seamlessly.
