How do I use the BIC UBSWCHZH40A?

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.
