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.
