Ohmyfin beantwortet: What does the SWIFT reject code FOCR mean?
Ohmyfin antwortet unten (auf Englisch).
FOCR means 'Return Following Cancellation Request'. The payment is being returned because the sender (or sender's bank) filed a recall / cancellation request (camt.056 or MT n92) and the receiving bank has agreed to return the funds. FOCR is a voluntary and cooperative return — the best possible outcome of a recall.
FOCR is an ISO 20022 ExternalReturnReason1Code. You will see it on the pacs.004 return message (or MT102 in the legacy world) when a bank has accepted a recall request and is sending the funds back to the originator.
FOCR only appears when the recall succeeds — the beneficiary bank or intermediary bank confirms it will return the funds. The opposite outcome (recall rejected) typically returns a CUST or NOAS code.
Timeline: once FOCR appears on the UETR tracker, the funds are typically credited back to the sender's account within 1-3 business days, minus any charges already deducted in the chain.
If you filed a recall and see FOCR on Ohmyfin, the recall worked. Contact your bank to confirm the credit date — they will debit a recall fee (typically $25-100) on the same day.
