The SWIFT/BIC code each of 11 US banks and credit unions publishes for wires sent from abroad.
SWIFT codes for US banks are 8- or 11-character codes that tell a foreign bank which US bank should receive an international wire. Chase publishes CHASUS33, Citi CITIUS33, PNC PNCCUS33 and Wells Fargo WFBIUS6S. Bank of America uses BOFAUS3N for US dollars and BOFAUS6S for foreign currency. The sender also needs your name, address and account number.

A SWIFT code identifies a bank, not your account. Some banks publish separate wire instructions for a business account or a foreign-currency payment, so if your bank gives you its own instructions, use those. Banks that publish no SWIFT code on a public page are not in the table.
How to receive an international wire
- Get your bank’s own instructions. Copy the SWIFT code, the bank’s name and address and your account number from your bank’s website, app or a branch, not from a list elsewhere.
- Give the sender your details exactly. Your name must match the name on the account, and the account number must be complete.
- Check the currency. Some banks use a different code for a foreign-currency wire, and Navy Federal receives US dollars only.
- Expect fees. Your bank can charge to receive the wire, and banks along the way can take a deduction; see the incoming wire transfer fee at 40 banks.
Warning
Scammers send fake wire instructions with a changed account number or bank code. If someone emails you new instructions for a payment you expected, call them on a number you already have before you send anything.
