Supported Countries and Bank Account Formats
This article lists every country PaymentWorks supports for international bank account details, along with the exact bank account format required for each country. Use it to confirm which details a supplier needs to provide before entering or updating international banking information.
Before you begin
- Each country accepts one format only. Bank details must be provided in the format listed for that country. Other formats, including domestic-only formats, are not accepted.
- Domestic bank codes are not accepted on their own. Local identifiers such as sort codes, routing or transit numbers, BSB codes, or national bank codes cannot be used in place of a SWIFT/BIC code or IBAN.
- Some countries require a national tax ID. Argentina, Brazil, China, and Mexico require a national tax ID in addition to the bank details listed.
- Coverage percentage shows the share of banks or bank accounts in a country for which bank account data is available through PaymentWorks' data provider. It is not a validation success rate. A dash ("-") means provider data is not currently available for that country; the country and its listed format are still supported.
- Country codes are two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes.
Accepted formats
The table below explains what each format requires. Suppliers can usually find these details on a bank statement, in online banking, or by contacting their bank.
