What information to I need to get money wired to my bank account?

Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

You need the SWIFT number(s) of the intermediary banks if it's a long route, in particular if it's crossing a national boundary, otherwise, you need the Institution number, the Branch number, and your Account number.

The Institution number and the Branch number combined are known as the Routing number.

AND... remember to give them the name of the account exactly as is recorded at the bank... which you'd better double-check, because it's quite often different from what's coloquially known as a DBO (Doing Business in the name Of). There's a good chance you and your friendly neighborhood bank teller have been using a DBO for years without either knowing that technically the account had a more formal name.

Ask me how I know that can be a problem.

Usually you just need the following
Account Number
Routing Number

Both of these can be found on checks for your account.

This can vary from bank to bank and you should check with your financial institution to see what they require

Recently I need to receive some payment from overseas.

Below are information being requested to wire money into my bank account:
Account name
Account number
Bank name
Bank address
Bank BIC/SWIFT code

You can do a search for BIC/SWIFT code here but it’s better to ask the bank directly.

The person sending money to your account will need the following:

1. Name of your bank
2. Banks's routing number (the digits before the colon: on the bottom of your checks)
3. Your name as listed on your account.
4. Your account number (the digits listed after the colon: on the bottom of your checks)

They will also need sufficient funds to cover the wired amount and any fees their financial institution charges.

You'll need the following:

1) The Name On The Account (Your's)
2) The Routing Number For The Account
(Checking Or Savings) (Your's)
3)The Account Number (Your's)

As for the money coming in to your account, the place where your getting the money from should be handling the rest as long as they have your account number and routing number.
