French term

domiciliation

Non-PRO French to English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
I know this has been asked before - given that the term follows requests for sort code etc, does it simply mean location? Checked in Bridge where 'domiciliation' was given, but searching online this only seems to occur in translated websites.

branch

in the case of a bank, this should be branch. "domiciliation" is the registered address but I should assume that local branches of larger banks do not change address every five minutes... and by "branch", it is understood that it is the "branch" of a bank at a particular address.

or you could say "branch name" or "branch address" but at least in the UK, "branch" is sufficient

address

I think it could refer to your bank's address (the main bank to which your Swift Bic number corresponds) rather than the branch.

"domicile: synonym= domiciliation
