      Bank Identifier Code (BIC) and Bank Code for Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited

      In May 2019, Standard Chartered Bank completed the transfer of its Commercial Banking, Corporate & Institutional Banking and Private Banking businesses from its Singapore Branch (“the Branch”) to its local subsidiary, Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited (“SCBSL”).

      Following this, SCBSL has been operating under the Bank Identifier Code (“BIC”) SCBLSG22 and Bank Code 9496 since 8 July 2019 for all Interbank GIRO, Fast and Secure Transfers (“FAST”), PayNow, MAS Electronic Payment System (“MEPS”) and Telegraphic Transfer transactions intended for accounts with SCBSL.

      Please note that all SGD payments via MEPS+ to the Branch’s BIC (SCBLSGSG) initiated after 12 March 2021 will be rejected.

      To ensure that all transactions to your account(s) are processed successfully, please request your remitters to select SCBSL BIC (SCBLSG22) while initiating new fund transfers to your SCBSL account(s).
