Important notes for AUD transfers

For AusPayNet transfers

• Accepted characters of Account Numbers are 5-20 alphanumeric characters
• Accepted digits for BSB Code are six-digits.
  The BSB code is a six-digit number used to identify the individual branch of an Australian financial institution (equivalent to a UK sort code or US ABA number).
• Non-ASCII characters will be converted to their ASCII equivalents or removed, to the best of our ability, in order to comply with the limitations of the domestic payment system.

For SWIFT transfers

• Beneficiary Postcode (1-12 characters) and Beneficiary State or Province (1 - 255 characters) will be required when you are sending AUD payments to Canada, Mexico, and the USA. 
• IBAN (15-34 alphanumeric characters with space permitted) must be used when sending payments to all IBAN countries. When sending to non-IBAN countries, an account number must be used.
• Account number (1-17 digits) must be used when sending payments to non-IBAN countries. IBAN must be used when sending to all IBAN countries.
• CLABE (18 digits) must be used instead of Account Number or IBAN when sending payments to Mexico.
