Belarus's BISS RTGS processes BYN, but many Belarusian banks lost SWIFT access following 2021–2022 sanctions. Belarusbank and Belinvestbank maintain some international connectivity via Russian or Chinese intermediary banks. Cross-border BYN payments increasingly route through Russia's SPFS. Wires to Belarus from Western institutions face significant compliance hurdles and may be refused entirely.

Most international SWIFT wires arrive in Belarus within 2–5 business days. Payments cleared through correspondent banks may take longer depending on intermediary routing and local cut-off times.
Belarus processes large-value interbank settlements through BISS. Retail transfers typically use ACH or local clearing networks, while cross-border wires enter via SWIFT.
The primary settlement currency is BYN — Belarusian Ruble. Foreign-currency wires are converted at the receiving bank's prevailing rate unless a specific currency account is held at the beneficiary institution.
