Additional information for SWIFT payments
Some countries require additional information sent with payments. This needs to be provided by the sender of the payment or it may not be successfully credited to the beneficiary account. These are regulatory requirements within the beneficiary countries, and failure to comply risks the payment being delayed or rejected.

If you wish to help those in need, we want to make it easier. We’re temporarily suspending our £20 payment charge for making SWIFT payments to those countries most directly impacted by the war. This includes payments to Ukraine, Hungary, Moldova, Poland, Romania and Slovakia.
