When sending a wire transfer, you will need to provide the beneficiary information as well as the beneficiary bank information outlined below. Where available, it’s recommended to ask the receiver for their bank’s incoming wire transfer form to help determine the precise information their bank requires. Once you have collected all of the details you are ready to visit your branch to have a representative send your wire transfer.
If you're expecting a wire transfer, you will need to provide the sender with the following information:
