How to do an international money transfer using SWIFT code?

An international transfer is done similarly to a domestic wire transfer, with a few differences. In addition to the recipient's name and bank account number, you will need to enter the SWIFT code (or BIC) of the recipient's bank.
When entering the amount you wish to transfer, pay attention to the transfer's currency. Once you enter the recipient's details, the amount might be automatically converted to the account's currency. However, this is not always the case, and you must double-check whether it's the preferred currency. If not, select the appropriate currency and then enter the amount. Otherwise, attempting to send money in a currency that your account does not support may result in the entire transaction being denied.
On top of Morgan Stanley Bank’s initial processing fee, you can expect to pay additional hidden fees imposed by any intermediary banks (or any other banking institution) and/or the recipient’s bank.
Please note that international wire transfers may also require additional information from customers and take a few days to process.
