Ohmyfin beantwoordt: Can I cancel a SWIFT payment after it has been sent?

Ohmyfin antwoordt hieronder (in het Engels).

You can request a recall, but you cannot guarantee it. A recall is a request — the beneficiary bank or beneficiary themselves must agree to return the funds. Ask the sender to contact their bank as fast as possible and request an MT192 / camt.056 recall against the UETR. The earlier you act, the better the chance of recovery.

Once the beneficiary bank has credited the beneficiary's account, the money legally belongs to the beneficiary. The bank cannot debit it back without consent. So speed is everything: a recall sent within the first hour usually succeeds; one sent after 24 hours usually does not.

If the recall is for a payment sent to a fraudulent account, the sender's bank should also file an FBI IC3 report (US), Action Fraud report (UK), or the local equivalent. Many banks now coordinate cross-border fraud recalls within hours via the SWIFT Stop & Recall service.

Track the UETR on Ohmyfin to confirm whether the payment has been credited yet. If the status is still ACSP/ACWP, recall is realistic. If it is ACCC/ACSC, the funds are gone and recall depends on the beneficiary's consent.
