Why is my BIC/PIC invalid? How do I register?

You may be entering an invalid/disconnected accreditation code. Please check with your company that you have the most recent code available. If you’re unsure, you may search for a company’s BIC code using the Swift BIC directory. Alternatively, you may submit a registration request for Swift to review.

Do I need ID when on site at Sibos?

Participants will be required to show a government issued photo ID upon arrival at the CNCC, Beijing. The ID must be physical, no digital or photocopies will be accepted. 

The official IDs that will be accepted are a passport, driver’s license or national identity card. Please make sure that you bring your photo ID with you to Sibos each day, as if you do not have an appropriate ID to accompany your Sibos badge you will not be granted access.

To help streamline security checks, please remember to keep your badge on and visible at all times and always carry your photo ID.
