How to send money using an IBAN
If you’re an expat who has sent money abroad in the past, then you’ve probably seen the term IBAN. If you aren’t sure what this is, it’s simply an International Bank Account Number which is a code that helps banks to identify your bank account internationally if you want to move your money between different countries.
The IBAN linked to your account is basically your passport to sending international payments to friends and family who live abroad. It’s quite a long number - up to 34 characters - so make sure you write it down!
If you want to send money to an IBAN account, there are different ways to do it - and some are much easier than others!
Send money to an IBAN-linked bank account
If you want to send money to an international bank account you’ll need your recipient’s IBAN so that the transaction is as smooth as possible, with no hiccups! What is an IBAN: Example IBAN numbers by country.
