A SWIFT/BIC code is what international transfers rely on to match incoming funds to the right bank account. For payments to UCO Bank accounts in India, UCBAINBBXXX is the default code that connects the sending bank’s instructions to UCO Bank.
Recipients can find their UCO Bank of India SWIFT code on a bank statement or through their online banking.
Request their account number and the SWIFT code for their UCO Bank branch. A recent bank statement or UCO Bank online banking will have the information.
Each branch across India may use their own UCO Bank SWIFT code. When the branch code can’t be confirmed, UCBAINBBXXX is the head office code and should work for most transfers.
Select your recipient’s bank by name, and Western Union will pair it with the correct SWIFT code. Once you enter the bank account transfer details and fund the transfer, your money is on its way.
SWIFT codes are 8 to 11 characters long, and each part contains a specific meaning:
UCBA represents UCO Bank.
IN stands for India.
This indicates the bank’s city or regional office, BB in this case for Mumbai.
This identifies a specific branch. When the suffix reads XXX, it refers to the bank’s head office.
If you don’t have a branch-specific code, the primary UCO Bank SWIFT code in India is UCBAINBBXXX.
Yes, a SWIFT code is part of every international transfer to UCO Bank. Without one, the funds won’t reach the right account. UCBAINBBXXX is the primary code for UCO Bank.
The simplest way is to ask the recipient. UCO Bank customers can find their branch SWIFT code on a recent statement or through online banking. Western Union’s bank codes guide is another reference.
Most banks in India that handle international payments are part of the SWIFT network with their own code. Banks outside the SWIFT network typically rely on a correspondent bank to process cross-border transfers. For more on how different bank codes work, see our guide on SWIFT codes vs. IBANs.
It depends. Many banks like UCO Bank issue separate SWIFT codes for individual branches in addition to the main head office code. When the branch code can’t be confirmed, UCBAINBBXXX should work for most transfers.
