What’s an IBAN number?
An IBAN (International Bank Account Number) code is an internationally recognized system for identifying bank accounts. It was introduced to facilitate international transactions and improve the accuracy and efficiency of processing cross-border payments.
By using an IBAN, it becomes easier to process international payments accurately and quickly. The IBAN helps to ensure that the funds are directed to the correct bank and account, reducing the risk of errors and delays in the payment process.
How long does an IBAN transfer take?
The banks involved, the countries of the sender and receiver, and the payment provider used can all have an impact on how long it takes to complete an IBAN transfer. The following are some general guidelines:
- Domestic Transfers: When the sender and receiver both have bank accounts in the same country, IBAN transfers are usually completed the same business day or within one to two business days.
- SEPA Transfers: Transactions denominated in euros are subject to SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) transfers within the European Union and several other European nations. These transfers can even be completed on the same day, within one working day, if started early enough.
- International transactions: Due to additional processing stages and probable currency conversion, international transactions may take longer. It can take anything from a few business days to a week, depending on the participating banks, any intermediate banks involved, and the effectiveness of the individual nations’ payment systems.
Weekends, public holidays, and any cut-off times set by banks can all have an impact on transfer processing timeframes. Unexpected events or issues, such as incomplete or wrong payment details, might also create delays.
