Does new zealand have bsb bank
In New Zealand, the equivalent of a BSB (Bank State Branch) code is the Bank Code and Branch Code.
The Bank Code is a 6-digit code that identifies the bank, and the Branch Code is a 3-digit code that identifies the specific branch of that bank.
In New Zealand, the Bank Code is also known as the "Bank Identifier Code" (BIC). It's used for international transactions, such as wire transfers.
Here are some examples of New Zealand banks and their Bank Codes:
- ANZ Bank: 012-001
- ASB Bank: 012-015
- BNZ Bank: 012-011
- Westpac Bank: 012-013
- Kiwibank: 030-001
To make a payment or transfer funds in New Zealand, you would typically use the Bank Code and Branch Code of the recipient's bank. For example:
- ANZ Bank, Auckland Branch: 012-001-001
So, to answer your question, New Zealand does have a similar system to the BSB code used in Australia, but it's called the Bank Code and Branch Code.
