This is the complete list of active SWIFT/BIC codes for banks in the United Arab Emirates. Use the table below to find a code by bank, emirate or branch – every row shows the institution, the branch or department, the emirate and the address. Some banks have a single code, while others use several: an 8-character code (or one ending in XXX) belongs to the head office, and an 11-character code points to a specific branch or department. If you already have a code and want to confirm it, use the SWIFT code checker.

How to read a UAE SWIFT code
A UAE SWIFT code starts with a 4-letter bank code, followed by AE for the country, then a 2-character location code, and an optional 3-character branch code. A code ending in XXX (or just 8 characters long) refers to the bank’s head office, while an 11-character code identifies a particular branch or department. A digit “1” in the second position of the location code marks a passive (non-transacting) participant. For the full breakdown, read what is a SWIFT code.
Frequently Asked Questions about the Swift Code list
Why does one UAE bank have several SWIFT codes?
Larger banks assign separate codes to specific functions or locations — for example treasury, trade finance, cash management or a DIFC branch — in addition to the head-office code. Each code routes payments to the correct unit inside the same bank.
What is the difference between an 8 and an 11 character SWIFT code?
An 8-character code (or one ending in XXX) identifies the bank’s main office. An 11-character code adds a 3-character branch suffix that points to a specific branch or department. Both belong to the same bank.
How do I know which SWIFT code to use?
For most international transfers the head-office (8-character) code works. Use an 11-character branch code only if the bank or the payee specifically asks for it. When in doubt, the head-office code is the safe default.
Are all the codes in this table active?
Yes. The table lists only active participants connected to the SWIFT network; passive (non-transacting) codes are excluded.
How often is the table updated?
The list is reviewed and updated as banks add, change or retire codes, so it reflects the current set of active UAE SWIFT/BIC codes.
Do legacy bank codes still work after a merger?
Yes. After mergers some banks keep older codes alongside the new ones — for example First Abu Dhabi Bank still uses legacy NBAD and FGB codes. Payments sent to a valid legacy code are normally routed correctly, but the current head-office code is preferred.
Does the SWIFT code change between emirates?
The 8-character head-office code stays the same across the UAE. Branch-level (11-character) codes differ by location, so a branch in Sharjah and one in Dubai for the same bank can have different suffixes while sharing the same first eight characters.
Which SWIFT code do I use for a salary or WPS transfer?
Use the bank’s head-office code unless your employer or bank specifies a particular branch or department code. The head-office code reaches the right institution in almost all cases.
