Your Chase SWIFT code is 8 or 11 characters and appears on your bank statements, in your online account, or by calling Chase directly

A SWIFT code is an international bank identifier that tells other banks around the world how to route money to your Chase account. If you're receiving a wire transfer from outside the United States, the sender will need this code. Chase's main SWIFT code for U.S. domestic and international transfers is CHASUS33 — but the full code may vary slightly depending on which Chase branch or service handles your transfer.

You don't need to hunt for this code or call customer service for a basic transfer. The fastest way is to check your bank statements or log into your Chase account online, where the code is usually listed under account details or international transfer information.

Key Takeaways

  • Chase's primary SWIFT code for U.S. transfers is CHASUS33, an 8-character code that works for most incoming international wires.
  • Your bank statements and Chase online banking both display your SWIFT code under account or transfer details without requiring a phone call.
  • Some Chase branches or specific services may use a longer 11-character SWIFT code; your statement will show which one applies to your account.
  • When you receive a wire transfer, provide the sender with CHASUS33 unless your bank statement shows a different code for your specific account type.

Check your Chase bank statement

Your most recent Chase bank statement — whether printed or downloaded as a PDF — usually lists your SWIFT code in a section labeled "Account Information," "International Transfer Details," or "Wire Instructions." Look near your account number and routing number.

If you receive statements by mail, the SWIFT code may appear on the back of the statement or in a separate section for international transfers. Digital statements in your Chase account often have this information in a collapsible menu or a dedicated tab for wire transfer details.

Log into Chase online banking

Open your Chase account at chase.com and sign in. Navigate to the account you need the SWIFT code for, then look for a section labeled "Account Details," "Transfer Information," or "Wire Instructions." Some Chase accounts display this under a "More" or "Settings" menu.

If you don't see it immediately, try searching within the page for the word "SWIFT" or "international." Chase also sometimes places this information in the section where you set up external transfers or view your routing number. The code will be displayed as an 8-character string (CHASUS33) or occasionally as an 11-character version depending on your account type.

Call Chase customer service

If you cannot find the code online or on your statement, call Chase at 1-800-935-9935 (the main customer service number for Chase checking and savings accounts). Have your account number ready. A representative can confirm your SWIFT code in under a minute and can also tell you if your specific account requires a different code than the standard CHASUS33.

Chase also operates a dedicated international services line for wire transfer questions. When you call, ask specifically for the SWIFT code associated with your account, and request that they spell it out to avoid confusion with similar codes.

Understand the difference between SWIFT and routing numbers

Your routing number is a nine-digit code used for domestic U.S. transfers between American banks. Your SWIFT code is used for international transfers and identifies your bank to financial institutions outside the United States. Chase's routing number for most accounts is 021000021, but this does not work for international wires — you must use the SWIFT code instead.

When someone sends you money from abroad, they will ask for your SWIFT code, not your routing number. If they ask for both, provide your routing number only if they specify they need it for a domestic transfer within the U.S.

What to do if the sender needs more information

Some international transfers require additional details beyond the SWIFT code. The sender may also ask for your account number, your full name as it appears on the account, and sometimes a reference number or purpose of transfer. Have all of this information ready before you give the sender your SWIFT code.

If the sender's bank requests a "SWIFT BIC" code, that is the same thing as a SWIFT code — BIC stands for Bank Identifier Code, and Chase uses these terms interchangeably. Do not provide a different code; CHASUS33 is the correct answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is CHASUS33 the SWIFT code for all Chase accounts?

CHASUS33 is Chase's primary SWIFT code and works for most U.S. accounts receiving international transfers. Some specific account types or services may use an 11-character variant. Check your statement or online account to confirm which code applies to your account, or call Chase to verify.

Do I need a SWIFT code for transfers between two Chase accounts?

No. Transfers between Chase accounts within the U.S. use your routing number and account number only. SWIFT codes are only required for international transfers or transfers between different banks outside the United States.

What if my bank statement shows a different SWIFT code than CHASUS33?

Some Chase branches or specialized services use longer SWIFT codes. Use the code shown on your statement, as it is specific to your account. If you are unsure which code to provide, call Chase customer service with your account number and they will confirm the correct one.

Can I use someone else's SWIFT code to send money to my Chase account?

No. The sender must use the SWIFT code for the specific Chase branch or service where your account is held. Using an incorrect SWIFT code may delay or reject the transfer. Always provide the code from your own statement or account details.

How long does an international wire transfer take once I give the sender my SWIFT code?

International wire transfers typically take three to five business days after the sender initiates the transfer. The exact timing depends on the sender's bank, any intermediary banks involved, and whether the transfer occurs during a weekend or holiday. Chase cannot speed up transfers that originate from outside the U.S.
