Where can we find swift codes?

• SWIFT is the abbreviated form of Society for
  Worldwide Inter bank Financial Telecommunication
  (SWIFT). It is another term for bank identifier
  code (BIC).
• The code constitutes of 8- or 11-digit that
  stands for your country, city, bank and (11-digit
  only) branch. BankSwiftCode's are capable of
  routing funds to any registered bank worldwide,
  with the use of this code. For further
  information on SWIFT codes, visit
  Bankswiftcode.org.
• A need for an 11-digit SWIFT code may arise if
  your bank has multiple branches. But in some
  cases this does not happen. They may rather
  process all funds through their headquarters or
  parent bank. Cross check with your bank to ensure
  that you are using the correct SWIFT code.

• If your bank provided you with an 11-digit SWIFT
  codeYou will have to enter all 11 letters
  and/or numbers, unless the last 3 digits are XXX.
  Note that some banks provide 11-digit SWIFT code
  ending in XXX. It serves as a place holder for
  those that do not accept 8-digit SWIFT codes. It
  can hence be cut off from the BankSwiftCode.ORG
  Wire Transfer registration form. Such SWIFT
  codes return the address of the headquarters and
  not the local branch. Your bank will use your
  account number to get your funds transferred to
  you. The best way to get your bank's SWIFT code
  is to contact your bank.Request your bank for
  the SWIFT code and bank account number that is
  needed for receiving incoming wire transfers.If
  you plan on receiving only local currencies, you
  need not worry about intermediary banks.The
  SWIFT organization offers a look-up service
  too.BankSwiftCode.ORG strongly recommends you
  contact your bank directly to cross verify the
  proper routing of your funds.
