Timelines
Acting on feedback from the community, Swift enabled ISO 20022 messages for cross-border payments and cash reporting (CBPR+) businesses in March 2023
The end date to enable full ISO 20022 for cross-border payments is November 2025.
Usage guidelines, the Vendor Readiness Portal and self-attestation
Vendors may download the Cross-border Payments and Reporting Plus (CBPR+) usage guidelines and test compliance using the Vendor Readiness Portal (VRP). Once valid messages have been received for all message types, application providers may complete and submit the self-attestation form.
The list of vendor applications that have self-attested as “ISO 20022 CBPR+ Ready” has been published and will be updated monthly, to enable financial institutions to make informed choices when making purchasing decisions.
To request access to the VRP or to submit the self-attestation form please contact us.
Complete and submit the self-attestation form
We publish and update the vendors and products that have passed our CBPR+ readiness tests. Apply using the self-attestation form.
Integration Test Bed (ITB)
Swift provides the swift.finplus!xpf service on the Integration TestBed (ITB). Registered Providers can find information on the FINplus service and instructions on how to subscribe by following this link to FINplus ordering on Swift.com. A ‘knowledge tip’ has been created to give more detail to both banks and vendors.
In addition, Registered Providers may apply for a Swift Compatible Application label to validate the compliance of their payments application. The requirements and process are published in the Knowledge Centre.
Swift Compatibility Label Programme
The Swift compatibility label means an application complies with carefully defined requirements for Swift standards, messaging and connectivity - helping customers to choose with confidence.
Find out how to apply for a label of your application, or browse our directory of Swift Certified Applications for the solution that fits your business.
