SWIFT - Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication.

Transaction orders are transmitted between members of this network.

Each member is identified with a unique SWIFT/ BIC code.

To this day, SWIFT is the biggest and most efficient tool for international money transfer, with over 11.000 member institutions in over 200 countries, sending over 5 billions financial messages globally every year.

A Corporate Account is made for commercial or business purposes. It can perform more transactions in one day with a higher transaction limit. A Corporate Account has all the functions of a Personal Account together with the exclusive Merchant Account function, which supports incoming payments to your account including accepting debit/credit cards from customers, support chargeback transactions and many more. In short, if you are interested in running your business effectively with the best possible support, you should choose to open a DSBC Financial Europe Corporate Account.

At DNBC, corporate account opening is as easy as opening a personal account with a dedicated Relationship Manager to guide you through the process, which would make it as simple as it can be. So there is no reason to use a personal account if you want to startup or currently run a business yourself.

SWIFT works by assigning each member institution a unique ID code that identifies the bank name, country, city, and branch.

For example DSBC Financial Europe BIC code is: DSFE LT 21 XXX

• The first 4 characters represent our institution (DSFE - DSBC Financial Europe).
• The 2 following characters represent the country we are based in (LT - Lithuania).
• The other 2 following characters might be used to represent the location/city or a combination of numbers based on the organization's liking.
• There might be an additional 3 characters, which are the institution’s branches.

Difference between SEPA and SWIFT:

At DNBC, we are aiming to provide the best services for businesses from everywhere across the globe. Companies that are not registered in Lithuania can also apply for a DSBC Financial Europe Corporate account with as simple a procedure as the one in Lithuania. The companies will need to provide following documents for a new corporate account opening: 

1. Passport of the Directors/ Shareholders (and all related parties).
2. Proof of residential address of the Directors/ Shareholders (Utility bill or bank statement not older than 3 months) and of those authorized signers.
3. Documents that verify Business Legal Entity:
   • Certificate of Incorporation (COI).
   • Memorandum of Article of Association (M&AA).
   • Certificate of Shareholders + Licenses (if any).
   • Supporting documents (Commercial Invoice or Sale Agreement, Contract…).

At this time, with DNBC SWIFT transfer, you can send money from your Euro account to other accounts in any other currencies.

However, when you receive payments in other currencies, the fund will be automatically converted to Euro in your DSBC Financial Europe current account.

In general, if you are working as a freelancer, you can collect payment to your personal account without the need to open a corporate one. However, this may change according to the law and regulation of every country you are based on so we would review this on a case-by-case basis. Please contact our Relationship Manager for specific information regarding your circumstance and your country specifically.

Corporate account procedure requires our client to provide some legal entity documents that a freelancer is unable to submit. For example when a corporate client applies for a DSBC Financial Europe corporate checking account, they are advised to submit some documents like Certificate of Incorporation/ Registration, Memorandum and Articles of Association, Register of Director & Shareholder, Company Extract ( for European companies only); and a freelancer cannot provide these papers to apply for DNBC corporate account.

On the other hand, a DNBC personal account is also an optimum choice for personal usages. You can execute wire transfers, pay online with DNBC MasterCard, manage your finance effortlessly with payment platform and mobile payment free registration fees and monthly maintenance fee while you only need to provide your identification and address proof.

You would need to inform us if there are any changes to the structure of the company so we can make appropriate updates to your account, this would include the following situation: 

1. If your corporation change the chief executive officer (CEO) or the board of directors 
2. If your corporation change your company address 
3. If your corporation change beneficial owners of the corporation or shareholders of the company

For the security of your corporate account, you need to inform us as soon as these changes have been officially agreed on so we can prepare the relevant document to change the representative of the company accordingly. If there are change not related to CEO or board of directors, we can change it in the account details but if there is a CEO change, the process of changing would be a little complicated as below:

Your corporate needs to inform DSBC Financial Europe of the new CEO information, we will then prepare an identification process for the new CEO, he or she will have to complete a short interview with us to complete this process. After the identification process, we would have all the necessary information of the new CEO in our system and we can proceed to change the authorised person of your company account to the new one, and remove the old CEO access to said account. This process may seem long and complicated but we only need information and a short interview from your CEO and we will get everything done for you.

However, we suggest that you should go through this process before the new CEO change is made official just in case there are any problems relating to this change.

Please check your corporate account after each change for any problems and notice us as soon as you encounter one so we can fix it immediately so you can continue to run your business smoothly
