Davivienda SWIFT code (código SWIFT): CAFECOBBXXX

How to receive an international wire at Davivienda

1. Give your payer the details below, including one intermediary bank for the currency.
2. Ask your payer to send the money as a SWIFT MT103 payment order, through one intermediary only. Davivienda suggests the one that matches the sender's own bank.
3. When the money arrives, sign in at davivienda.com and open Mis operaciones internacionales, then Recibir del exterior.
4. Complete the minimum exchange information (información mínima cambiaria, formerly the declaración de cambio) and agree the price at which Davivienda buys the currency. It can ask for supporting documents, such as an invoice, as a PDF or similar file.
5. On a business day, an operation made before 1:00 p.m. Colombia time is credited the same day. After that, or on a non-business day, it's credited by the next business day.

What Davivienda says about charges

• Davivienda's personal tariff table, in force from March 2026, lists USD 20 for a received international transfer that's negotiated and USD 5 for one credited automatically.
• Its international transfers page gives the USD 20 as converted at the day's TRM (Colombia's official exchange rate), plus IVA.
• Davivienda's pages give no figure for intermediary bank fees. The amount that reaches Davivienda can be lower than the amount sent if a bank on the way deducts one.

See OUR, SHA and BEN for how the payer's choice changes the amount that arrives.

Intermediary banks Davivienda lists

These come from Davivienda's instructions for receiving transfers. The document is undated and some bank names in it are old, so confirm the one you use with Davivienda before you send it to a payer.

Worth knowing

• Arriving isn't the same as being paid out in pesos. Davivienda says transfers are checked against Colombia's exchange rules (Banco de la República's Circular DCIN-83) and its anti-money-laundering rules, so foreign currency reaching the bank doesn't guarantee it will be converted to pesos (monetización). If the documents are missing or don't fit the exchange rules, it won't provide the service until they do.
• Limits on the online route. Davivienda's page gives USD 35 to USD 50,000, or the equivalent, for money received by SWIFT. It accepts USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, CAD and JPY online, and the account must be an active savings or current account with no blocks or garnishments.
• Company accounts. The online steps and tariffs above come from Davivienda's personal banking pages. A company should check with its Davivienda contact, because its fees and channel can differ.

An option for registered companies

Align has no peso account and doesn't replace an account at Davivienda. Align serves registered companies only, not individuals or personal accounts, and it isn't a bank. It gives a company named USD, EUR, GBP and AED accounts in the company's own name, with USDC and USDT alongside them, after a business review that usually takes 1 to 3 business days. Pricing is by quote. Your local tax, exchange and reporting rules still apply.

If that could fit, see accounts by currency and check your company's eligibility.
