What is a Routing Number?

Routing Number, also referred to as ABA Routing Number or Routing Transit Number (RTN), is a nine-digit code issued by American Bankers Association (ABA) based on the location where your account was opened. It is printed on the left side at the bottom of your check.

For domestic money transfer, the Routing Number is used combined with the recipient's bank account number. But for international inward money transfer, you need to use Swift Code together with Routing Number and account number.
