Other instant transfers, Including PayID

Most transfers to a BSB and account number, including PayID transfers, are typically processed instantly or in a matter of minutes. However, as a security measure, initial transfers and some other transfers might be delayed for 24 hours. Once you make the transfer, your account balance and available balance will be updated right away in NetBank. 

Transfers to Accounts That You Have Access rights to 

First-time transfers to or from a linked account that you have access to but that belongs to someone else or an entity (such as a business account or an account used by your parents or legal guardians, a power of attorney, etc.) may take the following forms:

• For transfers made before 7.30 p.m. AEST, 24 hours
• For transfers made at or after 7.30 pm AEST, allow 24-48 hours.

International Money Transfers (IMT)

An IMT is typically processed in 3 business days, but it could take longer depending on the recipient’s nation and bank. Any transfers that are made over the weekend, on a holiday, or after the currency cut-off time will be processed the next business day.

Fees and Charges for International CBA Bank Money Transfer

Below mentioned are the fees and charges for international CBA Bank money transfers:

Additional Fee to cover correspondent bank fees

We pay for this service and use correspondent banks to process IMTs. We will cover these correspondent bank fees for cross-currency IMTs when you send an IMT through NetBank, the CommBank app, or the in-branch.  When you send a cross-currency IMT using CommBiz, we’ll cover any correspondent bank fees (Japanese Yen excluded).

Using a Foreign Currency Account to Send an IMT

When using CommBiz or in-branch, you can choose to pay an extra fee when sending the same currency transfers (for example, sending an IMT using your GBP account to a GBP account overseas). The available currencies and associated fees are listed in the table below. The costs listed below do not include any additional fees that the beneficiary’s bank may have incurred.

Details You Might Need to Provide to Your Payer

It’s likely that your payer will ask you to provide the following details in order to ensure that payments from abroad are made to you promptly and without any delays:

• Commonwealth Bank of Australia is its full name.
• CTBAAU2S is the BIC/SWIFT code
• Your account number is 14 digits and is 06XXXX-XXXXXXXXX.
• Simply entering your login information into NetBank or the CommBank app will yield your account number.
• IBAN stands for International Bank Account Number. Australia doesn’t use IBANs, but some other countries’ payers might ask you for one. If they do, combine your BSB and account number without using any spaces or hyphens.
