Ethiopian transactions?
SWIFT codes help international wires land correctly. When a customer claims they already paid, Kershi checks bank and wallet receipts for merchants and ops teams.
Ethiopia-specific SWIFT guidance
- IBAN is not rolled out across all Ethiopian accounts; use the beneficiary details supplied by the receiving bank.
- Wire instructions commonly include account number, account name, bank name, and SWIFT/BIC.
- Currency is ETB (Ethiopian Birr). Confirm FX and compliance with your bank and NBE rules.
- Always confirm time-critical wires with the receiving bank — directories can lag official changes.
