ABN AMRO SWIFT Code: ABNANL2A

The SWIFT/BIC code for ABN AMRO is ABNANL2A. ABNA identifies ABN AMRO, NL stands for the Netherlands, and 2A is the Amsterdam location code. This code routes international wire transfers to ABN AMRO accounts.

ABN AMRO is the Netherlands' third-largest bank, partially state-owned since the 2008 financial crisis. The Dutch government holds a majority stake. The bank was originally founded in 1824 and re-established in its current form after the breakup of ABN AMRO Holding in 2007-2010.

Dutch Trade and Energy Payments

The Netherlands is one of Europe's largest trading nations, and ABN AMRO handles significant volumes of trade-related wire transfers. Rotterdam — Europe's largest port — generates heavy payment traffic in EUR, USD, and commodity-linked currencies.

ABN AMRO processes SEPA EUR transfers within one business day. Non-SEPA wires in USD or GBP typically take 1 to 3 business days. Incoming wire fees range from EUR 6 to EUR 12.50. Dutch IBANs start with NL followed by 16 characters.

ABN AMRO's Commodity Finance Division

ABN AMRO has historically been one of Europe's largest commodity trade finance banks, particularly in energy, metals, and agricultural products. Though the bank scaled back some commodity exposure after 2020, it remains a key financier for Dutch and European commodity traders.

The bank also has a clearing and custody operation that processes securities-related wire transfers. ABN AMRO Clearing Bank operates as a separate entity with its own SWIFT code (ABNCNL2A).
