A note from our team. Banks merge, branches move, and codes get reissued now and then. We recheck this page every few months. If you spot something wrong, tell us through the contact page and we will correct it fast. For a large transfer, always read the code back to the branch over the phone first. It takes a minute and saves a week of follow up.

About the branch

What this branch handles

Gochada Branch looks after day to day banking for Himalayan Bank Ltd. customers in Bhaktapur district. Deposits, withdrawals, remittance payout, loan payments, international transfers. The usual list.

Money arriving from abroad finds this branch through its SWIFT code. Money moving inside Nepal uses the branch code that Nepal Rastra Bank assigned. The two look similar if you have never seen them before, but they belong to different payment systems. Picking the wrong one is the most common reason a transfer sits stuck for days.

Office hours run Sunday to Friday, ten in the morning to four in the afternoon. Fridays get busy before lunch, so plan around that if you can.

Practical guide

Which code do you actually need

Money coming from abroad

Give the sender the SWIFT code from the panel at the top of this page. They will also ask for your full name as printed on your account, your account number and the branch name. Read the code out character by character when you confirm. One wrong letter sends the payment to a different bank.

Money moving inside Nepal

Local systems such as RTGS, NCHL and ConnectIPS read the branch code, not the SWIFT code. Copy it from the same panel. Each code has one job, and neither works in the other system.

Forms that demand eleven characters

Some foreign websites refuse an eight character SWIFT code. Add XXX at the end and the form will accept it. Banks read that suffix as the primary office, so the payment still lands correctly.

Before you move a large amount

Send a small test amount first if the recipient is new to you. Keep the slip until the money lands in the account. A minute of checking now beats a week of emails later.
