What’s the Bankwest SWIFT code?
The Bankwest SWIFT code is BKWAAU6P. A SWIFT code is an international bank code that identifies particular banks worldwide and is used to transfer money between banks from different countries. It’s sometimes known as a Bank Identifier Code (BIC).
Don’t worry if you’re looking for an IBAN (International Bank Account Number). We don’t use them in Australia – you’ll need to use our SWIFT code instead. Keep in mind that we don’t use routing numbers in Australia either (we use BSB numbers).
