"Num. Inter-bancario". On a form I'm filling in. What is it?

Question

I am filling in a form to have my Spanish pension paid through my UK bank account. They want: (Datos del banco): Domicilio; Plaza: Agencia; Sucursal; Num. Inter-bancario.

I do speak Some Spanish, but this seems a bit confusing. Help appreciated! Cheers, Maggie.

Answer 1

I guess it is the routing number. That's usually what is required for a transaction between different banks, along with the account number. You should call to the bank to be sure.

Answer 2

Domicilio: address Plaza: Agencia: Agency, so maybe the company name of the bank Branch: The branch of that company, so it's location Num. Inter-bancario: number of interbank? I don't really know that one without it being in context. Hope that helps!

Answer 3

My guess is: IBAN. Check on google for more info.

And yes - you will need to ask at your bank for this number.
