How this service works
Deterministic BIC/SWIFT check before an international payment: ISO 9362 structure (4-letter bank, 2-letter country, 2-char location, optional 3-char branch) plus a real ISO 3166-1 country-code verification. Query: ?bic=BNPAFRPP or ?bic=DEUTDEFF500. Returns valid, parsed parts and is_test_bic (8th char '0'). Pairs with /v1/validate/iban for country-consistency checks. Pure offline computation, 1y cache.
Output
Returns a JSON object with: whether the BIC is valid (boolean), the parsed bank code, country code, location code, branch code (if 11-char), whether it is a test BIC, and the data source description (offline ISO structure check — no live SWIFT directory lookup).
Example use cases
Verify supplier BIC before wire transfer
“I need to send a payment to our German supplier tomorrow. Can you check if their BIC code DEUTDEFF500 is valid before I proceed with the transfer?”
Parse SWIFT codes for invoice validation
“We just received an invoice from a French partner with BIC BNPAFRPP. Is this a real SWIFT code, and can you tell me what bank and country it represents?”
Bulk validate bank codes for compliance
“I have a list of BIC codes from our international vendor database. Can you quickly verify each one to make sure they all have valid SWIFT structures before we update our payment system?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://data.greeneris.io/v1/validate/bicWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap ($0.001) structural validation of a BIC/SWIFT code before initiating a payment or invoice. Note: this performs offline ISO 9362 structure and ISO 3166-1 country-code checks only — it does not confirm the BIC is registered in the live SWIFT directory. Prefer this for format validation, not for confirming a bank is actively SWIFT-connected.
Side effects
- Missing 'bic' query parameter returns a 400 error
- BIC shorter than 8 or longer than 11 characters returns valid:false
- Unknown or malformed country code portion returns valid:false
- Payment not made returns HTTP 402 with machine-readable USDC quote
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns 5xx
