Frequently asked questions
When is MT103 fully replaced?
SWIFT MT/MX coexistence ends in November 2025; after that, customer credit transfers must be pacs.008.
What does pacs.008 add over MT103?
Richer structured data — beneficiary address blocks, structured remittance up to 9,000 chars, full purpose codes, and explicit charges-bearer semantics. The UETR is the same.
Is pacs.008 always XML?
Yes — pacs.008 messages are ISO 20022 XML. Banks usually expose a JSON shim to customers, but the wire format is XML.
Does Ohmyfin display the structured remittance?
Yes — when the bank exposes it. Long structured remittance is shown verbatim with line breaks preserved.
Can I track a pacs.008 by EndToEndId?
Yes — Ohmyfin accepts EndToEndId as a fallback when a UETR is not available, although UETR remains more reliable.
