How to find a local branch SWIFT code for UCO Bank in India

Ask your recipient for the details

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.

Find the right branch SWIFT code

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.

Send out the transfer with Western Union

Understanding SWIFT codes

SWIFT codes are 8 to 11 characters long, and each part contains a specific meaning:

 

1 – Bank code (4 letters)

UCBA represents UCO Bank.

 

2 – Country code (2 letters)

IN stands for India.

 

3 – Location code (2 letters or numbers)

This indicates the bank’s city or regional office, BB in this case for Mumbai.

 

4 – Branch code (3 character)

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.
