How to Wire Money From a Swiss Bank Account to an USA Bank Account

Swiss banks offer many of the same features as other banks.

A Swiss bank account, for the most part, is like any other bank account. Swiss banks offer things like bill-pay services, online banking, and the ability to check your balance. What sets Swiss accounts apart from others is their increased security measures and stickler for privacy. If you have a Swiss account and want to transfer some of your funds to a U.S. account, the process is fairly simple as long as you know the correct information to access the account.

Instructions

1. Contact your Swiss bank by phone on their customer service line and request a transfer of funds. They will ask you several security questions to verify your identity. These questions and answers were set up when you started your account.

2. Give the customer service representative your U.S. bank account information, including routing number, account number, and amount to be transferred. The money will be transferred by the bank.

3. Log in to your online account access if the bank offers this service. Within this online program, you are able to pay bills, check balances, and transfer money. Go to the transfer money option and enter the bank account and routing number of the account you are transferring the funds to. Enter the amount and submit the information.
