How do I use the BIC AEKTCH22XXX?
For a SEPA transfer within the European payment area the IBAN is usually enough and the BIC is derived automatically. For transfers outside the SEPA area or for international (SWIFT) transactions you need the BIC AEKTCH22XXX in addition to the IBAN.
Verification of Payee (VoP) under EU Regulation 2024/886 applies directly only in the EU and the EEA, in the euro area since 9 October 2025. Banks in this country are not directly covered; whether and how they check the name is up to each bank. A correct IBAN therefore matters. Check your IBAN before the transfer with our IBAN validator.
You can also find the BIC via our home page by entering an IBAN, or use the BIC calculator to look it up from a bank code.
