What you need to know about the TD eTreasury® update

ISO 20022 is a significant industry initiative that will help standardize payments and information reporting globally, thereby making your payments more secure and transparent. Many of these enhancements will only impact backend operations at the Bank, but some will impact the way you send Wire Transfers.

What's changing:

  • Beneficiary Address is currently an optional entry, but will become required for wires sent within the US
  • Beneficiary Country will be a new required field for all outgoing wires – domestic and cross-border (Note: customers will be notified when the new field is available in TD eTreasury later this year).

What can I do now?
We strongly recommend that you begin ensuring that address fields are up to date when sending wires in TD eTreasury.

Future updates will affect the following areas:

  • Recurring Wires
  • Future-Dated Wires
  • Stored Templates
  • Stored Recipients
  • Wire Import Files

What's new, what's changing

  • Best Practice: Accurate Address

    • Be mindful: always provide an accurate address for your Beneficiary Payee. Not doing so can lead to errors and delays.
    • If in doubt, verify the address with your Beneficiary.

  • Beneficiary Address will be required

    • Domestic Wires will soon require at least two lines of the beneficiary address fields.
    • International Wires already have this requirement.

  • Coming Soon! Country Field

    • A new optional drop-down list to select the Beneficiary's country will be added to the address section of all wire forms.
    • It will become a required field, even if the country is indicated in the address lines.

TD eTreasury update FAQs

It is a standard introduced by The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to structure, extend, and enrich the data exchanged in the electronic messages between Financial Institutions. FedWire is adopting these standards across all wire payments, including domestic and international.

  • Indirectly:

    All legacy message format used by the FED and SWIFT networks will be replaced by the new ISO 20022 standard format. It will be transparent for TD eTreasury Users.

  • Directly:

    Some optional information will become mandatory in the new ISO 20022 standard. For instance, Recipient's Address for Domestic Wires and Recipient's Country for both Domestic and International Wires. TD eTreasury Users will be required to provide this info starting from 2025.

  • You can start ensuring that every wire you send has a complete address in Address Lines 1 and 2 of the wire form. Create New Domestic or International Wires

The beneficiary (recipient) should be able to provide their full wire instructions, including the proper address. Please reach out to the beneficiary for their address and country.

Once Address and Country fields become required, the below validation message will prevent you from submitting the wire without Recipient's Address and Country.
