To comply with the Central Bank of Bahrain’s directives and improve oversight of cross-border payments, SICO now requires a Purpose Code for all cross-border SWIFT transfers.
You can find the full list of codes in the link below. Each code includes the description and details needed to complete your transfer correctly.
This requirement has been mandatory since 31 May 2021, and we cannot process any cross-border payment instructions without the appropriate Purpose Code.
