8-Character vs 11-Character BANCO POPOLARE SOC. COOP. SWIFT Codes

BANCO POPOLARE SOC. COOP. branches may have either 8-character or 11-character SWIFT codes. Here is the key difference and when to use each:

  • 8-character SWIFT code (Head Office BIC) — Refers to BANCO POPOLARE SOC. COOP.'s primary or head office for that city. Most standard international wire transfers can be processed with just the 8-character code. The receiving bank routes funds internally.
  • 11-character SWIFT code (Branch BIC) — Includes the 3-character branch suffix at the end, routing directly to a specific BANCO POPOLARE SOC. COOP. branch. Faster and more precise — recommended for large-value or time-sensitive transfers.

Best Practice: Always use the full 11-character SWIFT code if available. If only the 8-character code is known, it remains valid for most international transfers to BANCO POPOLARE SOC. COOP. in Italy.
