Receiving Foreign Remittance in Axis Bank

If you are expecting an international wire transfer (USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, etc.) into your Axis Bank account in India, you must supply the sender with correct routing details to prevent delays or rejection.

Follow this checklist when setting up your inward remittance:

  • Beneficiary Name: Your name exactly as it appears on your Axis Bank account passbook/records.
  • Account Number: Your complete 15-digit Axis Bank savings or current account number.
  • SWIFT Code: The specific 8 or 11-digit SWIFT code of the destination branch or central hub.
  • IFSC Code: The domestic 11-digit IFSC code of your home branch (helps Treasury credit your local account faster).
  • RBI Purpose Code: Share the appropriate regulatory purpose code (e.g., P0802 for IT Services) corresponding to the nature of the funds.

Axis Bank offers multiple inward money transfer channels, each suited for different remittance sizes and urgencies. Here is a comparison of their processing speeds and charges:

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions answered about Axis Bank SWIFT codes and international money transfers.

A SWIFT code (or BIC code) is a standard 8 or 11-digit code used to identify a specific bank branch during international wire transfers. For Axis Bank, it begins with "AXIS" and is followed by "IN" (Country Code), "BB" (Location Code), and an optional 3-digit branch code suffix.
No. Only authorized Forex branches have unique 11-digit SWIFT codes. For smaller or non-forex branches, Axis Bank utilizes a central universal SWIFT code (typically the Head Office SWIFT code: AXISINBBXXX or AXISINBB) to route the international wire, which is then credited locally using the domestic branch IFSC code.
On average, an international SWIFT wire transfer takes 1 to 3 business days to reach Axis Bank. The actual processing time depends on the sender's bank country, time zone, clearing system, and the completeness of the recipient account information.
A SWIFT code is used exclusively for international bank transfers to identify banks globally, whereas an IFSC (Indian Financial System Code) is an 11-digit alphanumeric code used solely for domestic transfers within India (NEFT, RTGS, IMPS).
