What conditions do I have to satisfy?

To issue an international payment order, you just need to have a company account with BBVA and purchase the service.

Is there a maximum amount?

No, but if the amount of a payment is high, you must declare it to the Bank of Spain.

Why is the money routed through other countries?

This does not always happen, but to get the money to certain areas, sometimes it is necessary for the money you send to be routed through correspondent banks in other countries. Thanks to the Swift GPI, you can track your payment and see when the payee receives it.

How long does it take for the money to arrive?

The time varies depending on the hour, the country of destination and whether you choose the "urgent" or "standard" option. In any case, SEPA transfers issued before 5:30 PM may arrive on the same day.

Your payments inside and outside the SEPA zone

SEPA transfers

These types of transfers are those made in the countries of the SEPA zone in euros. These payments do not differ from the national payments you usually make.

Other types of transfers

You can also pay in other currencies or send payments to countries outside the SEPA zone. In the latter case, you can track it with Swift GPI, a service that shows you the route your money takes through other countries until it reaches the payee.
