BIC (SWIFT code)

A Bank Identifier Code (BIC) is a standard format used to help identify banks worldwide. You’ll need a BIC for someone to send you an international payment, such as a SWIFT payment. This is why a BIC is sometimes called a SWIFT code.

Nationwide's BIC is NAIAGB21.

Intermediary Bank (HSBC) BIC is MIDLGB22.

Note:

You can't use your savings account to send or receive a SWIFT payment unless advised by one of our teams — you'll need to use your current account.
