Before adding an international payee

Before you add an international payee to your international payee list you must ensure they are aware:
of ANZ's identity and contact information
that they are able to access the information ANZ holds about them
that their banking details are collected for transferring money directly into their account
that ANZ will not disclose their information to other organisations.

Remember that it is your responsibility to ensure the details provided by you are correct as we do not check that the details are correct.

Step 1 - Enter the Beneficiary bank details

Why should I save the payee?

If you choose to save the payee, their details will be stored in your international payee list.
This means they will appear in the "To" drop down list in future so if you need to transfer money to their account again you can simply select them from the list and their details will be filled in automatically.

What if the payee's details change?

If the international payee's bank details change in future, you can always go to the "My international payee List" under the "Biller and payee lists" section in the "Update Details" menu to edit the payee's details.
