Bangkok Bank Singapore’s public SWIFT/BIC for the Singapore branch is BKKBSGSG. Some transfer forms may request an 11-character BIC, in which case BKKBSGSGXXX is commonly used as the extended form with the default branch suffix. Use this code only for payments routed to Bangkok Bank Public Company Limited in Singapore; transfers to Bangkok Bank accounts in Thailand use a different Bangkok Bank Thailand SWIFT code. Before sending money, match the beneficiary name, account number, bank name, branch location and transfer currency with the recipient’s bank records.

What BKKBSGSG Means
The Bangkok Bank Singapore BIC follows the standard SWIFT format: bank identifier, country code, location code and optional branch suffix. The public Singapore code is shown by the bank as BKKBSGSG, while some international payment systems expand it to BKKBSGSGXXX when an 11-character field is required.
| Code Part | Value | Meaning | Transfer Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bank Code | BKKB | Identifies Bangkok Bank Public Company Limited | Do not confuse this with a Singapore local bank code. |
| Country Code | SG | Singapore | This is why BKKBSGSG is not the Thailand branch code. |
| Location Code | SG | Singapore location identifier | Used by the SWIFT network to identify the financial institution location. |
| Branch Suffix | XXX | Default 11-character suffix when required | Use only if the sending bank asks for an 11-character BIC. |
Bangkok Bank Singapore Transfer Detail Table
International transfers may ask for SWIFT/BIC, bank name, beneficiary details, address and payment currency. Local Singapore payment methods may ask for a bank code or account-format details instead. The sending bank’s form decides which fields are required.
| Transfer Field | What to Use | Where It Applies | Check Before Sending | Official Verification |

SWIFT Code vs Bank Code vs Branch Code
Bangkok Bank Singapore can appear in different payment screens depending on whether the transfer is international or local. The SWIFT/BIC identifies the bank in cross-border messaging, while Singapore bank codes support local clearing references such as GIRO participating bank identification.
SWIFT / BIC Use
Use BKKBSGSG for Bangkok Bank Singapore international bank transfer identification. If the payment form requires 11 characters, confirm whether BKKBSGSGXXX is accepted.
Local Bank Code Use
The Association of Banks in Singapore participating GIRO list shows Bangkok Bank Public Company Ltd with bank code 7047 and SWIFT BIC BKKBSGSG.
Branch Code Caution
Do not treat XXX as a Singapore local branch code. It is the default suffix in an 11-character BIC. If a local branch code is required, use the recipient’s bank-issued account details or confirm with Bangkok Bank.
Payment Method Fit
SWIFT is mainly for international bank transfers. Local Singapore transfers may use other rails such as FAST, GIRO or MEPS, depending on account eligibility, bank participation and the sender’s payment channel.
For local payment rails, use the separate explanations on FAST transfers in Singapore and MEPS high-value transfers to understand how the payment route can differ from a SWIFT transfer.
What to Check Before Sending
For Bangkok Bank Singapore, the SWIFT country segment is SG. Bangkok Bank Thailand uses a Thailand code, so the two should not be mixed.
Use Bangkok Bank Public Company Limited when the transfer form asks for the receiving bank name.
The recipient’s account number and registered account name are separate from the SWIFT code. A correct BIC cannot fix a wrong beneficiary account number.
SWIFT transfers may involve exchange rates, inward remittance charges and intermediary bank deductions. Ask the sending bank which charges apply before submission.
Save the payment reference, sender bank receipt and beneficiary details in case either bank asks for follow-up information.
