Understanding SWIFT codes

SWIFT codes are 8 to 11 characters long, and each segment carries a specific meaning:

 

1 – Bank code (4 letters)

UBIN represents Union Bank of India.

 

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, the code refers to the bank’s head office.

 

If you don’t have a branch-specific code, the primary SWIFT code of Union Bank India is UBININBBXXX.
